Whale rider (book review)


This story set in Newzealand, Maori tribal. The leader of Maori is Koro Apirana, a traditional aged who is willing to have a grandson, so that he could pass his traditional abilities to the next line. However, a bith of granddaughter (Kahu) has indeed broken their family’s lineage, this has been a great heartrending to Koro. In addition, as Kahu gets older she has entirety shown her talent abilities and a powerful energy of riveting whales, but Koro criticise that “she is of no used to me”. Therefore this makes Kahu literally intended to acquiring Koro smile and support.
Will the relationship be changed between Koro and Kahu? What will happen to everyone in the tribal? Will they adopt Kahu to be their leader?

I would recommend this book to my friends, because this story introduced me different kind of humanity, such as Koro he has a solemn exterior, but actually he is an approachable person.
