Akahai is Kindness, (Paperback)

<p>What does it mean to be kind? How do we decide who deserves kindness? Venturing through the Hawaiian rainforest, a young child, Keiki, encounters various Hawaiian animals- N&amp;#275;n&amp;#275;, Pueo, Kolohala, Moa, Poloka, and Pua'a. They provide the perfect opportunity for Keiki to practice loving-kindness with the magical Akahai backpack. But does Kopiana, the Hawaiian scorpion, who hurt poor N&amp;#275;n&amp;#275;, deserve Keiki's help? </p><p>In this delightful adventure, author Thao Kale'a Le ties together Aunty Pilahi Paki's meaning of aloha, as designated in the "Aloha Spirit Law" (HRS [§5-7.5]), with basic meditations on mindfulness and a heartfelt lesson on kindness. Each animal Keiki encounters provides an opportunity to express thoughtful kindness, culminating with the story's final message to be true to our innate aloha nature and to offer kindness even when it is the more difficult choice. Lush illustrations by Adam Ting bring this charming tale to life with humor and emotion.</p>
