Kimo, a boy from Honolulu, goes to stay with his aunt in an isolated village on another island. Here, the people have been untouched by modern civilization and still live following the old ways. But, to his dismay, he isn't accepted by the grandfather of the little village. Mysterious letters, a talking bird, unknown histories -- by the end of this tale, Kimo and young Lani learn a lot about their families and their country.
