Malia Maunakea''s thrilling Hawaiian debutnow in paperback!
Curses aren''t real.
At least, that''s what twelve-year-old, part-Hawaiian Anna Leilani Kama?ehu thinks when she listens to her grandmother''s folktales about sacred flowers and family guardians. Anna''s friends back home in Colorado don''t believe in legends, either. They''re more interested in science and sportsreal, tangible things that stand in total contrast to Annas familys embarrassing stories.
So when Anna goes back to Hawai?i to visit her Tutu, she has no interest in becoming the heir to her familys history; shes set on having a touristy, fun vacation. But when Anna accidentally insults Pele the fire goddess by destroying her lehua blossom, a giant hawk swoops in and kidnaps her best friend, and she quickly learns just how real these mo?olelo are. In order to save her friends and family, Anna must now battle mythical creatures, team up with demigods and talking bats, and evade the traps Pele hurls her way.
For if Anna hopes to undo the curse, she will have to dig deep into her Hawaiian roots and learn to embrace all of who she is.
