A True Princess of Hawai'i

Nani has always dreamed of being a princess. When a real Hawaiian princess comes to her hometown of Hilo, Nani dresses in her best clothes. But as she watches Princess Luka, who has come to save the town from Mauna Loa's volcanic lava flow, Nani learns that there is more to being a princess than fine clothes. Beth Greenway weaves the importance of kindness and generosity throughout this incredible story, based on the historical events of the 1880-1881 eruption of Mauna Loa on the Island of Hawai'i.
