Needs updating!.......2005-10-01

This book has a lot of background historical information that is very interesting and cool to know, but there are many restaurants listed which no longer exist (I went looking for several and couldn't find them). I also think that if you're going to write a general interest sort of guidebook, you should spend a little time on possible children's attractions, particularly places to eat with kids. However, we did do some fun things based on her book that we would never have found otherwise. If you buy this book, call before you go.

Great new author. This book is absolutely wonderful. The writing and paintings are excellent. Wherever you live, the story will immediately bring you and your child the tranquility of Hawaiian night. Lovely! I hope to see more children's books from Ms. Kono soon.

Hypnotic Hula Lullaby.......2005-11-05

A young girl cuddles in her mother's lap and falls asleep to the soothing sights and sounds of this Hawaiian lullaby.

Extraordinary Hawaiian pictures and a soothing lullaby rhythm make this an excellent bedtime selection. Descriptive language and sensory details work with the illustrations to transport the reader to a Hawaiian dream land.

Charming Story of Old Hawaii.......2006-10-02

Dawn Adrienne's "The Hawaiian Christmas Tree is a charming story that will entertain and inform children everywhere. Although fictitious, it is also based on fact - the first arrival of Christmas trees in Honolulu in the early 1900s and what life was like on Oahu and Maui around then. Eye-catching, colorful illustrations enhance this book. - Glenda Chung Hinchey, writer

Hawaiian "family" tale.......2000-03-23

My daughter read Luka's Quilt again last night. It's everything the "professional" reviewers said. Captures the flavor of life in Hawaii with wonderful illustrations and a very nice story with characters (Tutu, the grandmother and the Luka, her granddaughter) that are believable. We purchased this book in Hawaii, so it has special meaning for us. This story could also lead to a discussion with your child about who is right...the solution Tutu comes up with is good. Highly recommended. Planning a trip to Hawaii? Read this with your child. You'll like it.

Book Description

In Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park, primal forces of volcanism generate a dynamic cycle of destruction and renewal. Here, on two of the most active volcanoes on Earth, lava flows erase verdant landscapes. This is a natural catastrophe followed by new life.

Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park was established in 1916 on the island of Hawai'i to protect the geologic, biologic, and cultural resources on Kilauea and Mauna Loa, Hawai'i's two most active volcanoes.
