“Opononi, New Zealand, was a quiet little town by the sea. Most of the men

worked as shermen. In the summer of 1!!, they noti"ed that a stran#e sea

animal was followin# their boats. $t rst the men thou#ht it must be a shark.

%ut the animal "ame "loser and "loser to the boasts. %efore lon# e&eryone

"ould see it was a dolphin. One of the shermen named her Opo'after the

town.

$t rst Opo was shy, as many wild dophins are. %ut she was "urios, too. (&ery

day she swam "loser to the boats. )inally one of the sher men rea"hed out asfar as he "ould with his oar. *hen, he s"rat"hed Opo with it.

+he reared ba"k in the water. %ut the oar mush ha&e felt #ood, for soon Opo

"ame "loser than e&er before. *hen she rolled o&er. *he man had to lau#h. Opo

was plainly sayin#, “+"rat"h my belly this time.

$ s"ientist "ame to look at Opo. -e said Opo was a youn# dolphin who had

probably lost her mother. *hat was why she was swimmin# alone. Opo mi#ht

ha&e been an orphan, but she soon found a new family. )inally , the whole town

of Oponomi adopted the friendly dolphin 1.
