E hurihuri ana te taiao -- kua paru ngā awa, e itiiti haere ana ngā ngahere, e roku ana hoki te a ngā manu. Kei matapopore ana a Kohukohunui me ōna hoa maunga, ka tonoa e Naana āna mokopuna kia hīkina te mānuka. Ka whakaakona ngā moko e Naana ki ngā kōrero a ngā maunga -- he pūrākau e kawea ana e ngā hau, e rangona ana i te korihi a ngā manu, e kitea ana hoki i te kanikani a ngā ātārangi -- ka whakamaharatia ai ngā mokopuna me tū te tangata hei kaitiaki. Ko te mutunga iho, ka mōhio ngā tamariki kua riro mā rātou te taiao e tiaki. Engari, ka taea rānei e rātou te tō atu te aronga a ngā pakeke i ā rātou pūrere matihiko, me te whakaora i te awa kia ora ai hoki te taiao?
The maunga of Tāmaki Makaurau are worried. The natural world is changing - rivers are polluted, forests are shrinking, and the birds' waiata are fading away. While Kohukohunui and his fellow maunga keep watch, Naana gets her mokopuna onto the case. She teaches them about the mountains' kōrero- stories spoken through the wind, sung by the birds, and shared in dancing shadows - and reminds them that humans have a responsibility as kaitiaki. As the tamariki realise their own role in caring for the natural world, they know they must act. But can the kids get their parents off their screens, clean up the river, and help nature heal?
