There is a bright new star in the winter sky—Puanga, cousin to the Matariki sisters. Each year, she appears to the people of Aotearoa, a special sign for those unable to see Matariki, that winter and the Māori New Year are coming.

A new addition to Scholastic's popular Matariki range, this time introducing readers to the Puanga star, which is celebrated for Māori New Year and the coming of winter in place of Matariki along parts of the West Coast of New Zealand.

The Promise of Puanga by Kirsty Wadsworth is an enchanting celebration of this celestial event, capturing the imagination and cultural significance of Maori traditions.
