Title: Measina a Samoa – Artefacts Of Samoa
Author: AUCKLAND COUNCIL LIBRARIES

Moana Board Books is a joyful new bilingual series that takes our youngest readers on a journey across the Pacific, exploring the rich cultures of Moana Oceania. The first two books introduce the vibrant traditions of Samoa and Tuvalu.

In Measina a Samoa | Artefacts of Samoa, readers explore Samoan treasures – from the elegant taulima nifo puaa (boar tusk arm band), to the striking ‘ula nifo tafola ma pu’a (whale tooth and pu’a necklace) and the colourful ‘ula fala (pandanus garland).

Brought to life with bright, colourful illustrations by Samoan-Tongan artist Danielle Akenese Meredith, these books celebrate language, culture and identity, and provide a connection to Pasifika cultures for young and curious minds.

The book was developed by Auckland Council Libraries and reviewed by Lemoa Henry Fesuluai.
