The Grandmothers of Pikitea Street – Ngā Kuia o te Tiriti o Pikitea by Renisa Viraj Maki, Māori translation by Kanapu Rangitauira, Illustrations by Nikki Slade Robinson
Scents of lemongrass, garam masala, baking and smoked meat drifted down the street as the children’s grandmothers made food for their lunchboxes.
Māori, Ethiopian, Samoan, NZ European, Indian and Chinese grandmothers share traditional stories and recipes with their grandkids as they get ready for bed — explaining how the food will benefit the kids at school the next day.
The grandmothers aren’t cooking only for the children. They are also making dishes for their monthly gathering at one of their homes, where they continue to share their traditional dishes and stories, crossing cultural boundaries.
Format: This book is a Paper back.
Language: This book is written in both English and Te reo Māori (Bilingual).
