Hello Everybody,
Have you ever read a book called Seven Stars Of Matariki?
Today I will be writing a summary about the book.
I think the book is about a smart brother named Mitai and his brothers who only care about their looks. One day they heard beautiful songs comes from high up the mountain. When they climbed up the mountain they saw beautiful women and they fall in love. Then they start to become skinny and weak and their smart brother Mitai starts to get suspicious of the wives and follows them he finds out that his brothers wives change into birds and are trying to starve them to death. He ran back to his brothers and told them and they all went heartbroken. Mitai's grandfather made a magical net for his brothers captured their wives. The brothers captured their wives and gave them to Mitai, who gave it to the goddess of the stars who took them far away. The wives are allowed to shine their beauty each winter in the sky and once a year they shine in the eastern sky.
Did you like how I summarized it? If you like you can read the book yourself.

Talofa Talisa,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on completing this activity on ‘The Seven Stars of Matariki.' You have done a fantastic job writing down a summary for this book - did you ever read the story at your school or the public library? Or was it the first time coming across this story about the seven stars?
I actually used this book with a year 7/8 class and we created a jigsaw puzzle as a part of our art project! Do you remember doing anything like this at school? I would love to hear your experience. Let me know if you believe in this story or if you have any other opinions on how these seven stars came into form.
Talk soon,
Susie
Hi Susie,
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time for me to read the book, but I did heard about it from the public library where they have colour in competitions.
I don't believe the story because I believe my Heavenly Father created the world.
Thank you for reading my blog.
from Talisa.
Good morning Talisa,
