I am a believer that newborn babies will listen to anything, as long as you read it with love.

What better than a treasury of poetry. 

I grew up with A. A. Milne poems, and I'm pleased that children from Aotearoa have this, and other, books of poetry about THEIR world, to grow up with and recite from. 

If you need any poetry recommendations, then Paula Green's website should be your first port of call.
