Synopsis
Counting The Stars is a collection of four Maori stories for children, created by award-winning New Zealand children's writer and illustrator Gavin Bishop.
A sequel to Taming the Sun and Riding the Waves, this stunning book contains two well-known legends (Ranginui and Papatuanuku and Hinemoa and Tutanekai) and two less well-known legends (The battle of the birds and Kae and the whale).
Aimed at children aged 3-10 years, Gavin allows the essence of the original myths to remain while also re-telling them for a new generation of children. Counting the Stars is simply written yet powerful, and full of bold, beautiful illustrations.
