Book DescriptionIt is a tale of old written by one of HawaiÔiÕs kupuna who grew up on a small plantation camp in Mokul‘Ôia. Inspired by his grandson during bedtime storytelling, Toki first drew the illustrations using quick strokes before the visions in his head disappeared. Then he put the story down on paper. Part of his youthÑexploring Waialua, playing in streams, fishing, picking wild fruitÑis relived as he tells this story of a boy named HŠna and his friend the honu.
As a child, HŠna saves a frightened baby honu (sea turtle) from hungry birds. From that day on, HŠna and Honu become best friends. They surf the waves with mŠlolo (flying fish) and catch huge Ôahi. Soon the day comes when they must part ways. Honu has become a full grown turtle, strong enough to go back to the open ocean, and HŠna is a growing boy with new responsibilities. Years later, as a young man, HŠna meets his honu again when it is he who is saved this time. Together, they journey across the ocean in search of fantastic adventures.
