A book of support and encouragement for whānau of tamariki who are deaf or hard of hearing. The information is this book was put together for mātua (parents) and whānau (families) who have recently found out that their tamaiti (child), or a tamaiti they care about, is deaf or hard of hearing. 
Produced with whānau for whanau, who shared their stories, experiences and hopes and dreams with us. This was a joint project by Deaf Aotearoa New Zealand and the National Audiology Centre, with the support of the Ministries of Education and Health. This was produced in three languages — English,
te reo Māori and New Zealand sign language for print and online.
