Te Reo Picture Books | NZ Picture Books

Little Rapeti mixes all the ingredients together to bake a cake ... then impatiently waits and waits and waits for it to be cooked. These bilingual books with very simple text offer an accessible introduction to basic reo Maori vocabulary for young readers and their whanau. Kimberly Andrews soft watercolour illustrations are delightful, capturing the lovely relationship between Rabbit, his mother and his friends. With themes of determination, individuality, self-belief and exploration.
