STORY STRUCTURE OF BRINGING THE RAIN TO KAPITI PLAIN PARATEXTĪ cumulative rhyme relating how Ki-pat brought rain to the drought-stricken Kapiti Plain. This rhyme is clearly meant to be shared between two or more people, each taking a part. It’s a story about an old woman and her pig. On page 123, I was interested to find a Nandi equivalent of “The House That Jack Built” cumulative tales, because this style of story can be found all over the world. Here is a PDF of a book written by a white person about the Nandi people in 1909, so you can guess what to expect, but it does include a collection of Nandi folktales. This picture book is subtitled “A Nandi Tale”. I don’t know how Kapiti is meant to be pronounced - semi-arid lands in Kenya with a 550mm average rainfall - but my pronunciation is influenced by the name of the south-western North Island of New Zealand, called Kapiti Coast, in which the first syllable is stressed.
