Other editions of book Koa's Seed

KoaÕs Seed is an age-old tale retold by Carolyn Han and illustrated by Kathleen Peterson. Long, long ago in HawaiÔi, an aliÔi gathered all the men in the village and announced he would select a new leaderÑsomething that had never happened before. To each, he gave one seed for planting. A young man named Koa took his seed carefully and lovingly tended it for a year. From this seed, Koa is taught a valuable lesson. This is an age-old tale that has its roots in antiquity. It is a story that has traveled with camel caravans and sailing ships many times around the world. This is the first version to be retold in a childrenÕs book with a Hawaiian theme. Written by local writer Carolyn Han and masterfully illustrated by Kathleen Peterson, KoaÕs Seed is a classic tale that will delight and teach for years to come.
