Summary
After a long drought caused a food shortage, Makani is one of the islanders chosen to head out in a canoe across the Pacific Ocean in search of a new home. The dangerous journey requires a skilled navigator to find their way across the open sea with no land in sight. They hope to reach what we today call Easter Island.
