Ohana Means Family

Join the family, or ohana, as they farm taro for poi to prepare for a traditional luau celebration with a poetic text in the style of The House That Jack Built .

"This is the land that's never been sold, where work the hands, so wise and old, that reach through the water, clear and cold, into the mud to pick the taro to make the poi for our ohana's luau."

Acclaimed illustrator and animator Kenard Pak's light-filled, dramatic illustrations pair exquisitely with Ilima Loomis' text to celebrate Hawaiian land and culture.

The backmatter includes a glossary of Hawaiian terms used, as well as an author's note.

Alaturati-va familiei, sau ohana, in timp ce cultiva taro pentru poi pentru a se pregati pentru o sarbatoare traditionala luau cu un text poetic in stilul Casei pe care Jack a construit-o. „Acesta este pamantul care nu a fost vandut niciodata, unde lucreaza mainile, atat de intelepte si vechi, care ajung prin apa, limpezi si reci, in noroi pentru a alege taro pentru a face poi pentru luau-ul nostru de ohana.” Ilustratiile dramatice ale animatorului Kenard Pak se imperecheaza cu textul lui Ilima Loomis pentru a celebra pamantul si cultura hawaiana. Motivul include un glosar al termenilor hawaiieni folositi, precum si o nota a autorului.
