Publisher's Synopsis
BirdWords is a collection of twenty-two pieces of lyrical prose that bring our Hawaiian feathered friends to life with each reading. Some pieces are based on Hawaiian folklore, some on personal experience, and others reflect the role birds have played in the culture of the Hawaiian people. Each piece focuses on a particular bird and provides the reader and listener a glimpse into the appearance, habitat, behavior, and the environmental sustainability of the bird. Parents and elementary school teachers alike will find BirdWords an entertaining and educational medium for awakening a love of nature, Hawaiian culture, and mythology in our keiki.
