Poliʻahu's Light: Worthiness & Belonging

By Aimée del Aguila Donoho

A contemporary retelling inspired by the moʻolelo of Poliʻahu, offered to support children's wellness.

On the sacred summit of Mauna Kea, Poliʻahu cares for the mountain's rare and beautiful life, from the small palila bird to the resilient silversword. Surrounded by this quiet strength, she begins to see her own worth reflected in the world around her.

Poliʻahu's Light is a tender story about belonging, self-worth, and inner light. Through connection to place and spirit, children are gently reminded that they, too, carry something special within them; something worthy of care, kindness, and expression.
