Tarore's Book was a labour of love for author Barbara Lambie who heard this true story from the Maori Queen when she , Barbara was the first Infant Mistress at Rakaumanga School in New Zealand many years ago.Barbara passed away some years ago but P.G.Rob and Trinity Publishing recently produced a second edition ,as the themes of forgiveness and reconciliation between tribes and peoples are relevant today. Tarore was a Maori Chief's daughter in 1833 and learnt to read from a small copy of Luke's Gospel , at a mission school in the Bay of Plenty in the North Island of New Zealand. Educating girls was unusual in those times.Tarore shared the message of peace with her father chief Ngakuku and after she was later killed by a raiding party, Ngakuku forgave that tribe . This was a turning point. Others learnt also to read from this Book and another warrior ,Tamehana ,averted a massacre of the fledgling Wellington community.The ongoing ramifications of Tarore's story still reveberate around New Zealand and have a message of Peace for all in these turbulent times.Barbara only wrote one book-this was it ,but also produced a Study Guide for New Zealand schools. This book 'began' our company Trnity Publishing NZ Ltd in 1997 .
