Mihi is a simple book to share with babies, allowing them to explore their whānau and their place in the world. With repeating colours and shapes, it illustrates the connections between waka, mountain, iwi, through to māmā, pāpā, and the baby reader.

This book serves as an introduction for children of any age to their own pepeha—and to the concept of a pepeha.
