Book 1 of the Leilani Explores O'ahu Series
What is 'ike - and how do you find it?
Leilani and her younger brother Koa have just moved to their new home in Kailua, O'ahu.

Leilani has always heard the word 'ike - in her grandmother's stories, in the sparkle of the sea, and in the quiet moments when something new begins to make sense.

But what does 'ike really mean?

Together, Leilani and Koa paddle across the ocean, hike to the Lanikai pillboxes, and explore tide pools by the Mokulua Islands. Guided by the soaring 'iwa bird and their mom's wisdom, they discover that 'ike isn't something you find all at once - it's gathered little by little, like seashells in a box.

With lyrical storytelling, vibrant illustrations, and a cultural glossary, this book invites children and families to celebrate Hawaiian values of learning, observation, and belonging.
