Te Ra, which means the sail in te reo Maori, is the last remaining customary Maori sail in the world. Woven from harakeke more than 200 years ago, Te Ra has for many years been held in storage at the British Museum in London. Written by Ariana Tikao from the point of view of Te Ra and illustrated by Mat Tait, this book commemorates the homecoming of a treasured taonga, and celebrates our past, present and future as New Zealanders.
