The impact of the Moana film series has been vast and wide. For many young Pasifika, this was one of the first times seeing themselves represented on a global screen. Having the opportunity to step into the world of Moana and contribute to its legacy has been an honour for Katie and I.

So here it is, a collection of recipes that are a blend of traditional dishes, and modern interpretations directly inspired by the films. It takes a village to create a book like this and we are deeply appreciative of the help and guidance we have received along the way. We are so excited to share this adventure with you.
