Summary: Based on a true story of Toroa, the 500th chick to hatch at a breeding colony on Taiaroa Head in Dunedin, this evocative story follows the bird's life cycle as it grows from chick to adult. This book is a lovely narrative of Toroa's story and of the problems he might have encountered in the Pacific Ocean.
