Naupaka (Hawaiian Legends for Little Ones) Board Book by Gabrielle Ahulii

Illustrated by Jing Jing Tsong Part of a new series called Hawaiian Legends for Little Ones, Naupaka introduces kids ages 0-4 to one of Hawaii's best-known love stories that explains why the native plant naupaka--which can be found on the beach and in the mountains--blooms only half a flower. In simple, poetic language, this origin story gives small kids a taste of Hawaii's rich history of storytelling. Three other titles in the series are: Hina, Pele Finds a Home, and Maui Hooks the Islands--all legends that will give kids a wider view of Hawaiian culture, history, and its natural world.   Publisher ‏ : ‎ BeachHouse Publishing (July 31, 2016) Language ‏ : ‎ English Board book ‏ : ‎ 16 pages ISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 1933067799 ISBN-13 ‏ : ‎ 978-1933067797 Reading age ‏ : ‎ 5 - 6 years Item Weight ‏ : ‎ 1.7 pounds Dimensions ‏ : ‎ 5 x 0.5 x 6 inches
