Maui

Maui was happy cause he Just had Just found his mother Taranga. But two things bothered him who was his father? and where did his mother go during the day?. One night Maui caught his mother going out he did not say anything his mother jumped in a hole and Maui jumped after her when Maui hit the ground he saw his mother and a man sitting under a tree Maui shape shifted into a cheeky pigeon and flew up on the tree and started dropping cherrys on their heads the people of the underground world started throwing rocks at Maui. Maui  fell off the tree and shape shifted back into a human as soon as the man looked at Maui he knew he was his son the father took him over to a enchanted waterfall and put water over his head and said this will grant you ever lasting life  but the father was sad cause he knew one day that water would one day cost Maui his life. The end

  1. Hi Lexi you have been busy with your writing. What a cheeky pigeon that was. Next time can you put in some full stops. This would make it easier to read. Keep up the good work.

  2. Wow Lexi- what an excellent piece of writing you have chosen for Friday free-writing. Why did you choose this story to write about? Do you know any other stories from Maori culture?
    I'm very impressed with your effort and the amount of writing you have done. Next time i'd really like you to focus on your full stops. Miss P
