Why Pukekos are Blue - a Myth By Marcel

One day pukeko set off from his swamp. He was walking. A plane landed about five metres away from him. He said, “I will go there”, so he ran to the airport (he didn’t know what that was). He went inside. There was lots of colour. There was lot of boards and shops so he decided to blend in because he was white. He tried to get into a shop. He got inside. It was amazing. He hid under a soap tray then tried to eat some. “Bah! That’s disgusting,” he said, “I’ll try something else”. It was a supermarket, so he went to the apple stand. He tried a rosy red one. “That,” he said, “was amazing.” It was so yummy he took lots of them and snuck out. He hid in a back pack. It was dark in there. He said “who turned the lights off?” Someone heard him talking. “Is it me or is your bag talking?” The pukeko saw blue hairspray in there. He pushed the button. The blue hair spray wen on him except his tail and his feet that were still red. He hopped out of the back pack and looked in a mirror. He was so shocked he ran back to the swamp.. And that is why pukekos are blue!
