Synopsis

Tangaloa and The Creation of Land and Other Folktales

This beautifully illustrated collection of multicultural folktales takes you on a journey to the Polynesian island of Tonga. You will explore this diverse culture through incredible tales of gods and goddesses, magic eels, heroic deeds and more. These tales offer age-old lessons in building character and kindness that are enjoyable for children and adults alike.

You will be introduced to three unique stories drawn from oral storytellers, song and dance.

  • The Legend of the Coconut
  • The First Yam and Taro

With a unique mix of magic, revenge, and adventure, these stories are brought to a new generation with clear simple text and colorful entrancing illustrations. A genuine pearl of the South Pacific, the Kingdom of Tonga will seem more than just a fairy tale.
