Ancient Hawai'i by Herb Kawainui Kane

Like a Norman Rockwell painting, Ernest Spiva, Jr. shares his joy and excitement in growing up on Grace Avenue in Panama City, Florida. A descendant of two Bay County pioneer families, he was an entertaining storyteller with a memory for details and a subtle sense of humor. As he matured, Ernest struggled with what to do. Instead of pursuing his dream to be a doctor, he chose a career in education and became a beloved teacher and administrator. His memoir is a unique blend of history and nostalgia.
Thompson, Vivian L.: - Vivian L. Thompson, a long-time resident of Hawaii, heard her first Hawaiian legend from a guide on a mule-back trip during a visit to the Big Island of Hawaii. This sparked her interest and soon after she began collecting and retelling Hawaii's many tales and legends, hoping to preserve a rapidly disappearing heritage of folklore. Her many years of research in the subject have led to the publication of five books of Hawaiian myths, legends, and tales beautifully retold for today's readers; picture storybooks for young children; and plays for children's theater.
