Author: Kyle Mewburn (Illustrated by Rachel Driscoll; tr to Maori Katerina Te Heikoko Mataira)

This book is a Finalist in the Picture Book Category, New Zealand Post Children's Book Awards 2010.

In Maori.
Everyone loved Old Hu-Hu. But nobody loved him quite as much as little Hu-Hu-Tu. Old Hu-Hu is a thoughtful tale of young Hu-Hu-Tu's search for understanding of what has happened to his beloved Old Hu-Hu, who flew all the way to the moon (or so they said), then fell down dead. Sensitively written, this is a beautiful story of death and the celebration of life, with powerful, evocative illustrations by Rachel Driscoll.
Translated into Maori by Katerina Mataira.

The books follow Maui’s birth, his abandonment by his mother and his search for her, his search for his father and discovery and eventual owners of his grandfather’s magic jawbone, and his fishing up of Te Ika a Maui (the North Island).

How Maui Found his Father and the Magic Jawbone is the story of how Maui wonders where his mother goes each evening. One night he follows her and finds she visits his father, and the family is reunited. Maui then meets his grandfather, and secures his jawbone, which has magical properties.
