Riding The Waves: Four Maori Myths Bishop, Gavin A companion to Taming the Sun, Bishop's book has more revised original Maori myths, including two well-known legends (Maui Finds his Family, Maui and the Goddess of Fire) and two less well-known legends (Hatupatu and the Birdwoman, Rata and his Waka). The characteristic sense of humour of the author is obvious and while each story is exciting (and often a little scary), they are resolved beautifully. Bishops’ illustrations use a different colour palette for each myth and his mix of techniques create striking beautiful images. Also available in a Maori language edition, ISBN 9781869417901, $24.99. For children three to ten years-of-age. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
