The Maori name for New Zealand is Aotearoa that is often translated as "land of the long white cloud", a swirl of cloud caused by warm winter winds from Australia meeting cold Antarctic air over New Zealand. One of my favourite opera singers, Kiri Te Kanawa was inspired at a family reunion (her mother is Irish and her father Maori) to write folk tales just as she remembered them being told to her when she was a child. The legends depict the fantastic mythological culture of New Zealand. This is a charming book, beautifully illustrated by Michael Foreman. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Very appealing watercolor illustrations that suggest strong natural and magical forces (not attempting the Maori art style, by the way). ( )
