Maui the Legend

         

         

On a big hill was a small pa. At the pa the sun 

went very fast. In the pa lived a very strong  and 

powerful man and his name was Maui. 

So Maui set off to slow the sun.  When Maui got to the hill where the sun set, he had weaved a rope out of flax. He hid behind a rock and waited to see the sun arise.  Just then the sun arise. Maui quickly lasooed the sun and beat it with his hook until it said it will slow down.

That is the reason why the days are long and not short.  Maui lead his people so the world would be better.
