Description
One of the illustrations for the book 'Taketakerau, The Millennium Tree'.
As the book begins, the child and grandma settle down in front of the fire to listen to 'Storytime' on the radio. Koro, the old Maori storyteller, begins the true story of Taketakerau, the 2000 year old Puriri tree, and grandma opens the history book on her lap ...
Koro wears a traditional korowai black-tasseled cloak, woven from the fibre of the NZ Flax or harakeke (Phormium tenax).
