Yes!! It does Rain in Hawaii—nearly every day. But the rain in Hawaii comes usually as a quick tropical downpour. It’s wet, but warm, and seems to vanish as quickly as it appeared. Depending on which island and which side of the island you’re on, Rain can be light or heavy during the year, and there are definite rainy seasons. My favorite experience was hearing the rain blow through at night while I was in bed. The next day, then entire area was refreshed—and the sun was shining. Ahhh . . . what great memories!
Here’s one other “stormy” word—Rivers. That’s the last name of Carly, the kid’s dreaded enemy. So, how does she end up with Leilani’s treasured surfboard? Oh my—those little twists and turns of life! Experience them with Leilani, Maile, Sam and Kimo when you read Pineapples in Peril. Carly is not only a huge annoyance in book 1, but becomes a suspect in book 3, Ukuleles Undercover.
I hope to see you again next Thursday as I continue through the alphabet, giving you little snippets of words from Pineapples in Peril, Menehunes Missing and Ukuleles Undercover (Books 1, 2 and 3 of The Hawaiian Island Detective Club.) It’s the ABCs OF THE HIDC!
Aloha, and Mahalo for visiting!
