While drifting in his canoe, Mafatu was awakened at midnight

when his canoe was smashed by the reef

when Uri barked in his ear and licked his arm

by the playful splashing of a dolphin

by the sound of yelling in the distance

Why doesn't Mafatu climb to the top of the plateau the night the eaters of men come?

He is tired and it is late after working on his canoe

He is no longer worried about the eaters of men

He is lost and can't find his way

What does the thump , thump , thump tell Mafatu?

The eaters of men have returned

What does Mafatu tell Moana on his journey back to his home ?

I am not afraid of you anymore. I am not afraid of the sea.

How does TavanaNui respond when Mafatu returns?

My son , Stout Heart, has returned to me,

You are still the boy who was afraid.

What does Mafatu want to show off when he returns home to show he has faced his fear and found his courage?

A hat from the octopus he killed.

The new clothes he made by himself.

Mafatu prayed for wind on his way home because

he needed wind to stay ahead of his pursuers.

fresh air would help revive Uri.

the cool wind would soothe his sunburned body.

On his way home, Mafatu did not dare to sleep at night because

a tiger-shark was following him

Moana and Maui would take his life

he did not want to drift out to sea

the choppy water could tip his canoe

Mafatu ran from the Sacred Place to his canoe because

he needed to leave with the tide

he saw that the storm had lifted

Mafatu thought that the island was gloomy because

he was used to the openness of Hikueru

most of the island did not receive much light

he did not like the dark soil and deep caves

there were very few animals on the island

When he saw the albatross fly into the lagoon-fire, Mafatu

knew that his homeland was ahead

called for the bird to come back

offered a prayer for the bird's safety

wondered what lay inside the fire

When Mafatu returned to Hikueru

his father told everyone that Mafatu was brave

he handed the shark meat to his father

his stepmother proudly embraced him

he refused to look at the boys as he walked home

Mafatu wanted to kill the hammerhead shark because

the shark was stealing the fish from his trap

he knew he could use the oil in the shark's body

the shark was keeping the crabs from the lagoon

he wanted to take the meat home to his father

As he sat by the fire he made the first night on the island, Mafatu

felt lonely for his father's voice

watched for canoes in the lagoon

listened to the singing of the night birds

wished that his sister had come with him

Why were the bonitos the special property of the young boys?

The boys killed the bonitos as practice for killing other fish.

The bonitos could speak only through unproven warriors.

The boys were small enough to squeeze into bonito caves.

The men's hands were too big to reach into bonito holes.

What happened as Mafatu paddled away from Hikueru?

Kivi circled the canoe before flying out to the open ocean

Tapu sat in his hiding place and watched Mafatu's canoe

A seagull landed on his canoe and looked into his eyes

A small porpoise crossed his path as it swam out to sea

When the storm winds began to blow while he was on the open sea, Mafatu

called a prayer to the God of the Fisherman

sang a praise song to the God of Thunder

spread himself out on the bottom of his canoe

imagined that he was sleeping in his father's hut
