Talia

Author(s): Catherine Hannken

NZ Children & Young Adult

Talia is looking forward to going to Samoa. But when she gets there she doesn't understand what anyone is saying and she feels overwhelmed and confused. Can Talia's family make her feel welcome? Talia is a heart-warming picture book for ages 3-7. Catherine Hannken captures the confusion and culture shock of a young New Zealand girl's first visit to Samoa, while Trish Bowles' illustrations bring Samoa's land, sea, sky and people beautifully to life.
