About

This book won the Russell Clark Award in 1978 for the most distinguished illustrations in a children's book.

Told in the rhythmic style of the Maori narrators of old, this is the story of the people of a kainga who decided that they needed a meeting house built on their spacious marae. And the oldest tohunga agreed that they needed such a house and he promised he would design and build it for them and it would be a house of wonder.

Full colour illustrations throughout, explanation of the Maori motifs and designs on endpapers.
