SUMMARY:Book Signing:  Mother Tree\, Daughter Seed: Lessons in Slow Grow
 th\, written by Mārata Ketekiri Tamaira\, illustrated by Carl Franklin 
 Ka‘ailā‘au Pao.
DESCRIPTION:Book signing on Saturday\, May 2nd from 11am -1pm at VAC Gal
 lery in Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. The book titled Mother Tree\
 , Daughter Seed: Lessons in Slow Growth written by Mārata Ketekiri Tam
 aira\, illustrated by Carl Franklin Ka‘ailā‘au Pao.\n\nMother Tree\
 , Daughter Seed: Lessons in Slow Growth follows the tender relationship
  between two native Hawaiian koa trees\, Mother Tree and her offspring D
 aughter Seed. From the moment she wakes from her long sleep beneath the 
 soil\, Daughter Seed is apprehensive about the world around her. However
 \, at every stage of her development\, Mother Tree is there to impart he
 r wisdom and teach her precious seed that everything she requires to be 
 strong is already inside her—all she needs to do is look within. Over 
 the course of many decades Daughter Seed learns the meaning of self-wort
 h\, the value of slow growth\, and the interconnectedness of all things.
 \n\nBlending contemplative storytelling and vibrant illustrations\, Mot
 her Tree\, Daughter Seed is rooted in an ethos of social emotional lite
 racy and ecological stewardship\, engendering in readers an empathy for 
 self and for the wider natural world. An ‘ike Hawai‘i perspective is
  privileged and reinforced through the inclusion of ‘ōlelo Hawai‘i 
 (Hawaiian language) and Hawaiian concepts and values. Supplemental educa
 tional material provides further reading about trees and the importance 
 of native forest conservation in Hawai‘i with recommendations on ways 
 readers can help in that effort.
