Many of us have been saddened to hear about the passing of author and illustrator, Peter Gossage.
Peter's books are New Zealand classics - in the past and today - and have been instrumental in introducing New Zealand children to Maori legends and their heroes - Pania, Hinemoa and Tutanekai, and probably most importantly, Maui.
Many adults will have fond memories of his books from their childhood, but they have never gone out of style, and we have a great collection in our library too.
Have a look at our collection, and have a listen and look at the videos as well.
