Aroha: Māori wisdom for a contented life lived in harmony with our planet. By Dr Hinemoa Elder
Divided into 52 sections, each expanding on a Māori saying, this is a book to be dipped into rather than read from front to back. Some of the proverbs are traditional whakataukī; others are whakatauākī, (which are sayings where the original speaker or author is known). Hinemoa Elder explores the deeper meanings of each proverb, adding colour as she shares stories from her life illustrating what the wise words mean to her. Inspired by universal truths, the reflections are very relevant to everyday life. A small, beautifully presented hard-back, this book is easy to read. Delightful in every way.
