Hi Zain,

My name's Ruby and I'm one of the people who will be blogging with you for the Summer Learning Journey.

Wow! Those are three great facts! I can see you paid really good attention to the story. I like how you have mentioned that he pulled up the North Island of Aotearoa. Do you know why New Zealand is called Aotearoa in Maori?

It's cool to hear that you have also heard of Maui and the sun. Have you heard of how Maui brought fire to the world? If you haven't and would like to read that story as well, here is the link:

Let me know what you think of this story!
Cheers,
Ruby.
