Kalani Asks Tutu Pele the Three Questions - Paperback

by Jason H. Izumi (Author)

This is a story of a youth in old Hawai'i who attempts to seek important advice from the Fire Goddess Pele. Young Kalani's idea to seek the wisdom of Tutu Pele turns out to be a transformative adventure that changes the way he sees the world. Guided by the creatures of the island, he learns that the answers to life's biggest questions often begin in the heart.

Inspired by Leo Tolstoy's timeless tale The Three Questions, this Hawaiian re-imagining invites readers of all ages to journey with Kalani through a land alive with spirit, nature, and aloha-and to discover, as he does, that the greatest wisdom is found in living with love and purpose.

Written and illustrated with aloha by Jason Izumi
