Customer Reviews

The Best Hawaiian style Mother Goose

The book arrived quickly in excellent condition. It is a "kick", really funny how the author took off on traditional Mother Goose rhymes and gave them a Hawaiian flavor "Shark Boy ate no poi, his sister ate no fish, etc." It does give some ideas about the traditions and language. B. Sahota

A Wonderful Twist On An Old Favorite!

My daughter loves it and found it the next best thing to Barney. We just put her down for the night and she went to sleep willingly and easily after our 5th reading. I like reading it to her because of the colorful artwork and because it reminds me of our last trip to Hawaii

Its da bes'!

This is a very amusing book sent to us by friends in Hawaii. The new words to old favorites are easy to remember. It is a great way to introduce children to common Hawaiian words and elements of Hawaiian culture. The illustrations are well done and colorful. "Go Go Gecko" and "Three Big Pigs" are our favorites. Don't be surprised if your children want Tutus and slippers! I would definitely consider giving Hawaiian Style Mother Goose to friends, especially those with a Hawaiian connection.
