Te Poti ro Potae is a new translation of the popular children's classic The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss. Both the cover and the contents are in Maori only (it is not a bilingual edition). The story has been freshly translated by Ngamaru Raerino, a Maori-language lecturer at Auckland University of Technology and a Maori-language consultant for TVNZ. He has placed a special emphasis on retaining the rhythm and "fun" of the original in his translation. Te Poti ro Potae will have the same format and have exactly the same black, blue, and red illustrations as the much-loved traditional English-language edition.

Theodor Seuss Geisel – better known to millions of his fans as Dr. Seuss – was born the son of a park superintendent in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904. After studying at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, and later at Oxford University in England, he became a magazine humorist and cartoonist, and an advertising man. He soon turned his many talents to writing children’s books, and his first book – And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street – was published in 1937. His greatest claim to fame was the one and only The Cat in the Hat, published in 1957, the first of a hugely successful range of early learning books known as Beginner Books. In all Dr. Seuss wrote more than 40 children's books during a career that spanned over 50 years, picking up numerous awards, including two Emmy awards for television and a Pulitzer Prize Special Citation along the way.
