Living Pono: A Little Aloha Adventure

By Charmaine Pina

What does it mean to live pono?

On a beautiful day in Hawaiʻi, Kylie, Silei, and Skyla set out for fun at the beach-but what they discover changes everything.

When they meet a gentle honu in need, the girls begin to understand how even small actions-like leaving rubbish behind-can affect the ocean and the creatures who call it home.

With caring hearts and a strong sense of kuleana (responsibility), they take action-learning that living pono means doing what is right, even when no one is watching.

This heartwarming story introduces young readers to the Hawaiian values of aloha, mālama i ka ʻāina (caring for the land), and respect for nature-while encouraging kindness, responsibility, and love for our oceans.

Perfect for children ages 3-7, Living Pono: A Little Aloha Adventure is a meaningful Hawaiʻi-inspired children's book that families will treasure and return to again and again.
