Description

Behind dusty orange hills, where the sky stretches down to the sea, there's a magical, wild, windy place called Te Mata Hapuku. Sam and Te Rerehua love to visit their Grandma and Poua at Te Mata Hapuku (aka Birdling's Flat). They like to listen to the stories, with a backdrop of whipping wind, flashing torchlight, and the splash of Poua's gaff in the water. But one night, Grandma notices something mysterious. Someone has stolen some stars from the sky. And then the patupaiarehe come out to play on the beach ... Can Sam and Te Rerehua rescue the Matariki stars? A Maori language edition.
