Leilani and the Lost Little Honu

By Gavin Rydell and Kimberly Rydell

A heartwarming island adventure about kindness, courage, and caring for the ocean.

Leilani loves the ocean-the sound of the waves, the warm sand, and the lessons her Grandpa Kimo shares about respecting nature. One day, while walking along the shore, Leilani discovers a tiny honu (sea turtle) all alone and far from the water.

With patience and a gentle heart, Leilani knows what she must do.

Leilani and the Lost Little Honu is a beautifully paced picture book for ages 4-7 that celebrates empathy, environmental care, and the power of small, thoughtful actions. Perfect for bedtime reading, classrooms, and families who love ocean-themed children's books.
