    [synopsis] => Collins Modern New Zealand Classics 3. With a younger readership, of 9-12, this much-loved classic retells the traumatic events surrounding the 1886 eruption of Mt Tarawera, from the viewpoint of two young schoolgirls. Lillian lives with her widowed mother at Te Wairoa, the village, which acts as a center for tourists who flock to see the famous eighth wonder of the world, the pink and white terraces. When Mattie, an English girl of her own age arrives with her parents, Lillian finally has an opportunity to join a tour party led by her friend, the famous Guide Sophia. But these are worrying times, the old tohunga has been prophesying doom and disaster, and when they travel across Lake Rotomahana, a mysterious canoe appears out of the mists, a waka wairua, or ghost canoe, and all who live in the shadow of Mt Tarawera are about to have their lives changed forever.
 
 An exciting tale of New Zealand's recent history, Elsie Locke's timeless classic has now been reissued for a new audience.
