I can't believe it's taken me so long to get around to reading this book. It's wonderful!
I read it over lunch time today.
Set in Whangara, New Zealand and told by Rawiri, it's the story of Kahu, the Maori girl destined to become the next whale rider. Interweaving the whale story, Maori legends, and family life, this is an enchanting book.
Read as part of the 80 books around the world and Orbis Terrarum challenges.
