The Kuia and the Spider


Author: Patricia Grace
Illustrator: Robyn Kakukiwa

This is one of my favourite picture books about a bad-tempered grandmother kuia (granny) and a grumpy spider. They fight all day and all night long about who is the best weaver. They fight for so long that they get tired and fall asleep... then next morning they wake up and start arguing all over again.

I like this book very much because the pictutres are great, they almost look like photos, and the story is very funny. An extra bonus is that some of it is written in Maori. I recommend that you get it out of the library and read it. You will enjoy it like me.
