LS2 READING CHALLENGE | Book 6

Today I have decided to do another book for the LS2 READING CHALLENGE. The book that I have decided to read is Maui and the Sun. The topic was "Myth or Legend". I chose Maui and the Sun because I read it a lot when I was younger. I found a site that had an audio of someone telling the story, it also had sound effects that made the story cool to listen to.

Summary of the book - This book is about Maui, Maui was  getting angry at the Sun because it would always go down to fast. Maui called his brothers and told him about his problems with the sun, A problem he had was that he never got enough time to eat his dinner. His brothers also had the same problem, but they couldn't get enough time to hunt. So they planned to make a hook using flax leaves. Once they had done that, They waited til the sun was about to rise. (Moments later) The sun was finally starting to rise, Maui and his brothers then swung their hooks and grabbed onto the sun and pulled it down. The Sun Exclaimed on why they were doing that to him. Maui yelled telling him that he was to fast to set. The Sun said "CANT YOU SEE I'M DYING!", Maui didn't want him to die, because if he did they wouldn't have any sun at all. Maui told his brothers to let go, and Maui said "That should make him set slower"

This book was interesting to listening, I recommend this book because it is a great story to learn from.
