Description
Wills was a teacher at the Māori Anglican boarding school, Te Aute College in Hawkes Bay. In his preface he notes that he has written this book for the growing number of students (in 1950) who have little or no knowledge of te reo Māori. He ends "To the young Māori boys and girls, who have my heart and confidence, I would like to say this: I have written this book for you, to enable you to preserve the treasure of your forefathers, and hope by doing so, you will feel it a joyb, as well as a matter of pride to be a Māori."
