A wonderful coming-of-age story about Hawaii’s first king, this book chronicles the life of King Kamehameha I from childhood to his ascension to becoming one of Hawaii’s greatest kings. A thrilling, true story, Kamehameha vividly captures the tension, danger, and triumph that follow the future king, who as a child was forced to hide from jealous chiefs who marked him for death. Beautiful drawings illustrate the experiences that forged his warrior spirit and the excitement of his first battle.
