Have You Ever Wondered What Life Would Be Like If We Lived Forever?


Introduce the book.
This book is about how Maui defied the Goddess of Death. It is written by Peter Gossage.

Tell about the book, but don’t give away the ending!
This book is all started when Maui wondered what would happen if everyone could live forever. He decided to try to reach the heart of the Goddess of Death but then the Piwakawaka laughed out loud because of the way Maui wriggled his feet. Then the Goddess of Death woke up but then something else happened and caused Maui to have a blackout.

Tell about your favourite part of the book or make a connection.
My favourite part was when Maui had the blackout because he met all the Gods.

Give a recommendation (e.g., If you like…, you will love this book or I recommend this book to anyone who likes…).

I recommend this book to anyone who likes stories of Maui. If you like this story, you should also read another title called ‘Maui slowed the sun’.

WALT understand and extract information for a story. I can do this when I write the plot of the story in my own words.
