Aloha Everything
This breathtaking picture book depicts the beauty and indomitable history of the islands of Hawai’i and the Polynesian people through the storytelling vehicle of hula. Through hula, a girl learns about the creation of the islands, about her ancestors’ journeys across the sea, and about the heroes and romance of her culture’s mythology, developing a deep appreciation for her land and her people. Brilliant colors and striking details breathe life into lightning-scattered seas, rivers of lava, and a host of plants and animals.
