Iconic author and illustrator Peter Gossage's retelling of a legend about the mountains of New Zealand's central North Island is now available as a bilingual Māori-English story, translated by Hēni Jacob.

Gossage's classic retelling of the Maori myth of Mt Taranaki, Mt Tauhara and Mt Pūtauaki is now available in a bilingual Māori-English edition, translated by Hēni Jacob.

Me pakanga a Tongariro ki ētahi atu maunga kaha e toru, ki a Taranaki, ki a Tauhara, ki a Pūtauaki, mō tana wahine mō Pihanga te take. Koia nei te paki o tāna pana i a rātou tokotoru ki ngā wāhi e tū nei rātou i ēnei rā.
He tauira kei muri o te pukapuka e hanga ai koe i au ake maunga. Mau ano e whakahaere tau ake pakanga a ngā maunga!
He putanga reo Māori–reo Pākehā o tēnei tino pakiwaitara o Aotearoa.

Tongariro is forced to battle three strong mountains, Taranaki, Tauhara and Pūtauaki, to keep his wife, Pihanga, safe from them. This is the story of how he successfully banishes them to the positions where they stand today.
