Konenerio and the Flag Master – Konenerio ao te Tia Itoman
$4.95 – $29.95 + GST
A Bible, a hymn book, and two white flags. Who would think that such ordinary objects could help save people’s lives? But that’s exactly what happened in Kiribati during World War Two.
And all thanks to a 15-year-old boy named Rob’ati.
Find out how Rob’ati did it in Konenerio and the Flag Master – Konenerio ao te Tia Itoman, an epic bilingual (English and Kiribati) story of bravery, clever thinking and faith.

I really appreciate the work you are doing in keeping our Pacific Stories alive in the book Konenerio and the Flag Master. I also appreciate Kinaua for sharing this story. I grew up hearing the story but as time passes by, the story also fades and I almost lose track of who the main characters are. This story is historically important to me and my family as if the Americans had not saved those men, our whole family lineage would cease to exist. I again appreciate and thank you for your work.
