KIA KAHA is a collection of true stories about amazing Maori who have achieved incredible things.

Featuring people and groups both historic and contemporary, who have achieved great things from land marches and language revival to hip hop and contemporary Maori fashion design, this pukapuka will fill readers of all ages, and from all walks of life, with aroha, whanaungatanga and hope for our future.

Kia kaha – be strong, go hard!

The judges say, ‘This is a powerful illustrated storybook and an inspiring compendium that celebrates Māori who have done incredible things. From individuals to groups, historic to contemporary history, every entry showcases Māori who have blazed a trail of their own. Illustrated by a host of 12 talented Māori artists, each of whom brings their own flavour to the mini biographies, Kia Kaha is a very special book for readers of all ages. It will inspire every reader, of every generation, to draw on their own strengths and abilities. This is a highly engaging book and wonderful resource that will fill readers with hope and aroha.’
