Yesterday's Rain --- A Kid's Guide to Kauai, Hawaii - Penelope Dyan - Bog

There are tons of things for a kid to do and see in Kauai, Hawaii,
and award winning author, attorney and former teacher, Penelope
Dyan, along with award winning photographer, John D. Weigand
have combined their efforts once again to show you just a few
of those things. You can kayak down a river, surf on the beach
and you can see some fun and beautiful birds. Chickens run wild
on Kauai, surviving all on their own, left over from early settlers,
and the Hawaiian geese are a real treat to watch and they paddle
right up to you. There is a lighthouse you can visit that is 100
years old, and it just had its birthday! And the color green is
abundant, as the mist and rain caress the island daily. In fact,
Mount Wai?ale?ale (near the center of the island) is 5,148 feet
(1,569 m) above sea level. And it is said to be one of the wettest
spots on earth, with an annual average rainfall of a grand total of
460 inches! Yes, you can go to a luau and eat out and do all those
sorts of things; but you can also go bird watching, see a rainbow
in a blowhole, and just lie under an umbrella on the beach and
soak up the sun. This is why they call this place paradise! This
book is also an early reader so a kid can practice reading skills
though word recognition and rhyme, and there is a music video
on the Bellissimavideo YouTube Channel that goes along with this
book for more educational fun!
