Tu Meke Tui! Paperback Book - English

Another Kiwi goodie to add to the collection.

Tu Meke Tui is a story of friendship, courage and discovering that sometimes its our differences that make us truly special.

Tere the Tui and Tait the Takah are two very different sorts of birds; one loves to flit and twirl around in the sky, while the other prefers to rustle about in the undergrowth.

Tumeke is a New Zealand Maori word which means to startle or take fright. In recent years, tu meke (as two words) has developed as a colloquial phrase meaning too much and is used to express excitement or being shaken up.

A beautiful book written by Malcolm Clarke and illustrated by Flox.
