Hāloa: Hawaiian Dream by Catherine Wynne

Product Description

The gods Wakea and Ho`ohokukalani conceived a child who died at birth and was buried facing the morning sunrise. A kalo plant grew. The couple had another son, called Haloa. He was the first living human and was tasked with caring for his elder brother. In return, the plant provided food for the human race. Each brother nourishes the other.” – Catherine Wynne
