Stars of Orion

A picture book set in a newly-settled Otago  introduces children to our adventurous past.

New Zealand’s first goldrush in 1861 attracted thousands of diggers hoping to make their fortune in the Tuapeka goldfields. Robbie, a young boy from the small town of Dunedin, has the adventure of a lifetime when he follows his dad to Gabriel’s Gully and Wetherstons shanty town.
