This comic provides a fresh approach to the story of Te Tiriti o Waitangi, New Zealand’s founding document. It covers a wide time span, from the arrival of Polynesian explorers to the signing of Te Tiriti, to the New Zealand Wars, and through to the modern-day Treaty settlement process. A special emphasis is put on unpacking the two versions of Te Tiriti and exploring their ongoing significance. Toby Morris’s cartoon-style illustrations make the information accessible and engaging without sacrificing historical accuracy. A timeline at the back of the book helps students to make sense of the significant stages.
