1900s pakeha attitude toward Maori

In the 1900s fashion was like wearing a long dress and suits.

Pearl Button was the main character. Pearl has a blonde curl, blue eyes, and wearing lots of clothes with white bright teeth. Two Maori women and two Maori men and police were also characters

Pearl is swinging on the gate and sang a little small song. Two Maori women are walking on the road barefoot with a big flax basket of ferns. Then pearl stop swinging and the two Maori women stop when they see her and start talking and waving their hands around and pearl laugh. The two Maori women walk over and ask her questions about her then they told her she coming with them to beautiful things to show her. She follows them but after a while, they ask her if she tried and nodded her head no and they continue walking for a bit before they asked if she was sure she was not tired again she shake her head no but she starts crying and her lips start trembling and one of the women gave her a flax blanket and wraps her up, and carry her. They took her to a one-room house with other Maori women and men.
