Nau mai, haere mai, i te Pagebound whaanau! A non-exclusive list of resources for engaging with te ao Maaori (the Maaori world), Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa (the Pacific ocean) and Aotearoa (New Zealand). The people, the history, the language and the culture. Please give your recommendations! These are books I'm aware of from my own wishlist, and many have not been added yet/ haven't been imported yet. Kia kaha te reo Maaori!
