Ko Wai e Huna ana?

Who’s hiding? Who’s crying? Who’s backwards? Look carefully! Is it dog, tiger, hippo, zebra, bear, reindeer, kangaroo, lion, rabbit, giraffe, monkey, bull, rhino, pig, sheep, hen, elephant, or cat?

Can you tell? Look again. 18 fun-loving animals can be found on each question-posing page, sending readers into an up-close, attention-to-detail discovery.

This book is fantastic to read aloud, especially when you get to the final two pages: Who's who? Children learn the names of animals, to recognise expressions, colours, and how to count.

Review: "Bright, bold, colourful and engaging ... a delightful book, perfect for sharing with littlies aged 2 upwards and it may well be they will have less trouble mastering the language than the adults." -- Waikato Times (NZ)
"The text is simple, clear and easy to read, perfect for the recommended age group of three years old and above [and] a great resource for those learning Maori." -- Gisborne Herald (NZ)
"This is great as a teaching tool for so many children who struggle with the concept of how facial expressions can tell us so much about each other [and] for anyone learning te reo Maori." -- Book Trailers for Kids and YA
