About this title

From the Author:

I am a first grade teacher who has read thousands of beautiful stories to the children in my classes.After many trips to Hawaii Island, I became inspired by the history, culture and "Aloha Spirit" to write Legend Of The HULA MOOSE.  I wish to thank my students at Guadalupe Elementary School (Union School District) in San Jose California, for being the first audience for this book.This story demonstrates that living creatures can adjust to unfamiliar surroundings, make new friends, and overcome all obstacles to thrive.  The moose are helped in their adaptation to island life by the other animals, illustrating that everybody including moose, needs love and guidance to achieve success!  ALOHA! --Christine Sprowl Tetak

From the Inside Flap:

Soon after the paniolo (Hawaiian Cowboys) arrived back at the ranch, they told the others at dinner about seeing moose near the waterfall pond on the volcanic mountain of Mauna Loa.The cowboys laughed it off, thinking the story a joke or just an imaginary tale.  Throughout the years there were more sightings, rejected by most as fable.  These stories spawned the Legend Of The HULAMOOSE.  However, anyone with good sense knew that ther were no moose in Hawai'i! --Christine Sprowl Tetak
