The Reading Passport: Books set in Hawaii

Aloha! Hawaii, the latest state to join the union, is also the second widest. The chain of islands also keep growing every year due to the eruptions from Kilauea Volcano. If, or when, you visit Hawaii, don't send postcards. Why mail a postcard when you can mail a coconut? Just make sure the coconut is dried out, decorate it as you like, and send! If for the moment, travel to Hawaii will be limited to the armchair kind, here is a list of books immersed infused with the flavors, music, and appeal of the islands of Hawaii. Aloha!
