Kat Quin is a best-selling and award-winning author, illustrator and designer from the Waikato. The Kuwi and Friends Maori Picture Dictionary was inspired by her children, who have been passionately learning te reo Māori at school. Her hope is that this series will provide an accessible and practical way to help whanau (family members) feel confident to use more Māori words in the home. Kat first worked with Pānia Papa at the age of eighteen, when she was entrusted with the illustration of Māori language resources for Te Ara Reo Māori, developed by Takatu Associates Ltd. Over twenty years on, they still work closely together on various educational projects.
