Timo and the kingfish (Te Pūmanawa)

Reedy, Mokena Potae

Gregory, Elton

Notes
When Timo takes the dinghy out to go fishing, he hooks a kingfish, big enough to stop his brothers
teasing him about not being a proper fisherman. But when his dog Pou falls overboard, and Tangaroa
appears, Timo is prepared to let the kingfish go to get Pou back. Suggested level: junior, primary.
Timo wishes he could be a real fisherman like his father and older brothers. One day Timo went fishing
with his little dog, Pou, and hooked a kingfish. What happened next was unexpected.
