Summary: Eleven young people from Tangaroa College in Ōtara, South Auckland, share how they stay connected to their culture, though far from home. The young writers worked with teacher-writer David Riley to select objects that represent who they are as Pacific young people, and to tell stories about them in English and Sāmoan. You'll be inspired to read how proud these youth are of their identity-it's a penina tautele to them, a pearl of great price. (Publisher)
Parallel text in English and Sāmoan.
