Koni atu kē ngā āhua o te manu rērere.

Tu Meke Tui is a story of friendship, courage and discovering that sometimes it's our differences that make us truly special.

Tere the Tui and Taitū the Takahē are two very different sorts of birds; one loves to flit and twirl around in the sky, while the other prefers to rustle about in the undergrowth.

Tumeke is a New Zealand Māori word which means to startle or take fright. In recent years, tu meke (as two words) has developed as a colloquial phrase meaning 'too much' and is used to express excitement or being shaken up.

When digging out a drain, the little yellow digger gets stuck in the mud. So they bring in a bigger digger . . .

The story of The Little Yellow Digger was created from a real event, when one of Betty and Alan's grandchildren excitedly told them about a digger getting stuck in the mud next to their house and they had to bring a 'bigger digger' to help free it. The idea stayed with Betty and The Little Yellow Digger was eventually born.
