Summary: "Eti and his sister, Sylviane, live on the Polynesian island of Raiatea, in a small fishing village called Fetuna. With their friend Timi, they often listen to Uncle Turo's stories of their seafaring ancestors. Although life on Raiatea has changed since the old days, when it was a meeting place for Polynesians from many islands, many of the daily tasks are still the same. The children help to clean and prepare the fish, caught in the lagoon by their father, Ro'o, they harvest fruit and coconuts, and they learn to tend the garden where taro is grown"--Back cover.
