They all know that is impossible because the tree has been cut, but Kalei has faith--after all Christmas is a time of miracles. The tale is brought into focus with the illustrations which have a delicate old world style.

Charming Story of Old HawaiiOctober 1, 2006 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Dawn Adrienne's "The Hawaiian Christmas Tree is a charming story that will entertain and inform children everywhere. Although fictitious, it is also based on fact - the first arrival of Christmas trees in Honolulu in the early 1900s and what life was like on Oahu and Maui around then. Eye-catching, colorful illustrations enhance this book. - Glenda Chung Hinchey, writer
