KOA'S SEED written by Carolyn Han, illustrated by Kathleen Peterson Long, long ago in Hawai‘i, an ali‘i gathered all the men in the village and announced he would select a new leader—something that had never happened before. To each, he gave one seed for planting. A young man named Koa took his seed and carefully and lovingly tended it for a year. From this seed, Koa is taught a valuable lesson. This is an age-old tale that has its roots in antiquity. It is a story that has traveled with camel caravans and sailing ships many times around the world. This is the first version to be retold in a children’s book with a Hawaiian theme. Written by local author Carolyn Han and masterfully illustrated by Kathleen Peterson, Koa’s Seed is a classic tale that will delight and teach for years to come. 8 x 9 inches 32 pages $16.95 ISBN 978-1-949000-39-9 |
