Description
The Hawaiian language is alive and growing in influence. Hawaiian is now the primary language in many classrooms and other settings, but there is still a great need to make Hawaiian more accessible to more learners. To address this need, we have included basic Hawaiian words and phrases in the English translation of No ka Elepaio Kolohe. A Hawaiian language lesson sheet and glossary are also included at the back of this book to provide additional learning opportunities. Our hope is that readers will discover that learning Hawaiian can be fun and rewarding. This book includes English translations.

Excerpt
a hakilo ihola o ia ia Kanaka. Lele o ia mai ka lala kumulaau a i ka pohaku hookahi a Kanaka e hoomaha ana. Iho o ia i kahi o ka Kanaka hue wai, a nana pono akula o Elepaio i ia hue wai me ka hooia pu i ka hiamoe paa loa a Kanaka. A curious little elepaio bird came and peered down at Kanaka. He flitted from a branch to the pohaku where Kanaka was resting. After a while, he flew down to Kanakas hue wai. He stared at the hue wai and made sure Kanaka was sound asleep.
