This book is a shout-out to the weird and wonderful endangered species in Aotearoa, those lesser-known creatures that don' t regularly make the news. But they are just as important as the ' stars' like kakapo and kiwi, for they are the foundation of our unique biodiversity. ' Tiaki' includes such exotic animals as the Smeagol gravel maggot, a sea slug found on the south coast of Wellington; the moko kakariki, a gecko with a bright blue mouth; the kowaro/Canterbury mudfish, which can survive out of water for up to several months; and the tiny, critically endangered pekapeka-tou-roa/ long-tailed bat. Written and beautifully illustrated by Jean Donaldson, this is a highly original and inspiring book aimed at intermediate-age children and teenagers.
