Huhu Koroheke (Old Hu-Hu Maori)
Author(s): Kyle Mewburn (tr to Maori Katerina Te Heikoko Mataira)
Te Reo Māori | Death and Grieving
Everyone loved Old Hu-Hu. But nobody loved him quite as much as little Hu-Hu-Tu. Old Hu-Hu is a thoughtful tale of young Hu-Hu-Tu's search for understanding of what has happened to his beloved Old Hu-Hu, who flew all the way to the moon (or so they said), then fell down dead. Sensitively written, this is a beautiful story of death and the celebration of life, with powerful, evocative illustrations by Rachel Driscoll.
This Maori edition was written by Katerina Te Heikoko Mataira. First published 2009.
