Okay, our friend.
So if you have been out there enjoying our stories from across the world, then congratulations.
We are going to give you yet another one.
This one is, I'm really excited about it.
Because we really like the movie Moana.
And it features a guy named Maui.
But did you know that Maui is also a popular trickster demigod?
Uh-huh.
And he has stories that are told in the people who are in the Pacific Islands who love him.
And he is a very fun character.
So we're going to read one of his stories.
And this story is a very old story, okay?
So we're excited to share it with you today.
This story was written, adapted by Gabriel Ahuli and illustrated by Jingjing Chong.
And it is read today by Mommy and Billy.
Are you ready?
Here we go.
On a small island in the middle of the ocean, there lived a young boy.
His name was Maui.
Maui's island was constantly veiled in darkness.
