Eleven-year-old twins, Josh and Lizzie Parker and their travel-blogging parents are in Oahu with their friends Levi Hale, his thirteen-year-old daughter, Ulani, and his mother, Tutu, the matriarch and founder of Nani Hala, the family's pineapple farm. Tutu is the mastermind who keeps it prosperous and independent.
But now Tutu is confused, staring blankly, and wandering off. She's abandoned work on her spectacular woven mat for the museum celebration. Lizzie struggles to convince others, but Levi and Ulani reject any possibility that Tutu could be ill. Josh, focused on surfing and ziplining, feels Lizzie is overstepping. A new assistant from California seems helpful to Tutu, but does she have other motives?
Suddenly, an area of pineapple plants has turned yellow, and Lizzie realizes it could be destructive root rot from failed drains, capable of destroying fields throughout the farm. With fewer pineapples, a forced sale to a competitor could be necessary.
When Tutu goes missing again, Lizzie is frantic to find her. The blazing sun could be deadly for the older woman. Ulani and Lizzie rush to the fields to search, but the area is massive. With time running out, Lizzie must discover her imua-the Hawaiian spirit of moving forward with courage and perseverance-to find Tutu and save Nani Hala.
Readers aged 8-14 years old will relish this exciting educational adventure set in Hawaii. Challenging interpersonal relationships, suspense, and fierce determination will entice readers of every age, including reluctant readers, parents, and educators.
