in Peril! Of course! What better P words
could there possibly be?
How about Plantation. The Pineapples that are in Peril are growing in the Tong Plantation. Someone is
vandalizing—smashing, gashing, cutting and destroying plants. Leilani and her
friends make it their mission to find out who’s doing it and why.
Did you know that it takes 18 months for a Pineapple
to grow to maturity? That’s why the destruction has
such a negative impact on the Plantation.
Another great P word
is Pidgin. No,
I’m not talking about a bird, but about the type of local English used by
Hawaiians, especially when hanging out with friends. Kainoa uses Pidgin fairly
regularly and you’ll have fun reading what he says and then figuring out what
he’s talking about by Leilani or Maile’s response to him.
You’ll feel like you’ve been transported to the islands!
Blog Tour Begins!! Stay tuned and I'll let you know when and where to read the next review/interview about Pineapples in Peril!
Don’t forget to come back
every Monday and Thursday as I go through the alphabet, giving you little
snippets of words from Pineapples in Peril (Book 1 of The Hawaiian Island Detective
Club.) It’s the ABCs OF THE HIDC!—until the release date for Pineapples on October 2,
2012.
Aloha,
and Mahalo for visiting!
