Sally @ Pinehill School: How did the fantail got it's fan

How did the fantail got its fan

Once long long ago, in a hot dessert, there was no food and no water.

Animals and humans starving to death. They gave up living in the poor desert.

Some poor people even tried to kill themselves, and most of the animals are dying without food and water.

Suddenly, 1 of the sparrow think that she need to help her friends and family to survive.

So she decided to find some food in the richest village in the whole country. The village is very far away from home,but for everybody’s life, she still flew to the village.

After 1 day, the sparrow felt tired flying , so she flew slower than she was when she started at the beginning .

Suddenly, a hunter came to find some animal to eat. He saw the sparrow flying slow, his eyes shined, it looks like that his saying ‘’ That bird is stupid and fat, It must be very yummy! ‘’ The poor sparrow realised the dangerous, she flew faster to escape from the hunter. The hunter still hitted her, she felt it very painful but she need to get to the village. The poor sparrow kept on flying , just in a different speed because she couldn’t fly that fast since she had been hitted by the hunter.

Finally after 2 days of flying, she arrived the village. The people living in the village is greedy and rich, they throw small leftover the poor sparrow to have some food and not rest in their village and houses.

After a while, she woke up and started to tell all the things that happened in the desert to the king of the village. He agreed to give some food to the sparrow and he even carried all the food to the desert that the sparrow lived in.

When the food arrived home, everyone in the desert thanked the king. After he goes, some people think that they should give the sparrow a fan as a reward. The other sparrows want the fan too, so they also went to find some food. But the humans thought only the first sparrow who went to find food is kind, the other ones went just for the fan. So they went to TIKI MATU - the god of desert to ask if he could put a fan on the sparrow’s tail.

TIKI really appreciate her work, so he agreed. He used his magic to make a fan and let the sparrow come to him and tried the fan. She thought it is very good but she also wanted her friends to have fans too. Tiki thought that she is very friendly so he maked the fan for all the sparrows in the desert.

So now all the sparrows( I mean fantails) got it’s fan.

Now the poor desert became a forest, for sparrows ( fantails ) to live happily in the rest of their life.
