5.0 out of 5 stars Good Book 31 Jan 2004
By Ayesha - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I found the book very interesting and stimulating. It consists of the information about the Tongan culture and people, especially the Tongan children and how they absorb the Tongan culture through socialization or "becoming" process. It gives the whole picture of the Tongan society with implicit and explicit views of their traditions, thoughts, and behaviors. I would recommend anyone who wants to undestand the Tongan culture to reak this good book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Becoming Tongan: An Ethnography of Childhood. 5 Aug 2001
By Christa Cohen - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Thank you, Helen Morton! This is an understandable description of the Tongan culture from pre-missionary times to the current trends! Helen Mortan is in a unique position to introduce the Tongan culture to the Western Mindset. She is Australian and was married to a Tongan Man, and has his child. She presents her facts in a scholarly manner. I found this book to be much more than an ethnography of Childhood. It made the very different "Tongan Way" completely comprehensible to me.
