There is a bright new star in the winter sky-Puanga, cousin to the Matariki sisters.

A new addition to Scholastic’s popular Matariki range, this time introducing readers to the Puanga star, which is celebrated for Māori New Year and the coming of winter in place of Matariki along parts of the West Coast of New Zealand.
