Children's Fiction

This is a Children's book that I read to my twin boys. I loved the pictures in this book, and I love all the facts and Hawaii words in this book. I have found that this book's storyline does not flow easily, and I also found that one of the little boys in this book being named Ocean was a little confusing. I really wanted to love this book, but I did not love it or hate it. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
