Kia rite, kia mau!
Kua tae te wā mō te huinga o ngā huinga,
Mō te tino taiopenga o te ao kapa haka.
Kua rite te whānau mō…. Te Matatini!

Kua whiriwhiria e te whānau ō rātou tino kapa.
Ko wai ka toa, ko wai ka tohu?
This is the Māori language version of The Greatest Haka Festival on Earth. It’s national kapa haka competition time again, and this Māori performing arts festival is a big event!
It needs planning, tactics and dedication – and that’s just for the people watching! Nan’s a hardcore kapa haka follower, and she shows her mokopuna all the tricks to get the best seats, find the choicest pāua and whitebait fritters, hunt out the coolest poi, pounamu and glittery moko, and meet the star performers. And all along, Nan’s keeping a big secret that’s only revealed when the star performer does Nan’s amazing signature poi move – and her group wins the competition.
Format: This book is a Paper back.
Language: This book is written in te reo Māori.
The English version is available here: The Greatest Haka Festival on Earth.
