My daughter is 1/2 Hawaiian and I was looking for some childrens books/cds/movies that she might like?
possibly even learning some of the language.
Juju bean, 100% kid what is that supposed to mean??? She is very interested in her Hawaiian ancestory…specifics would be great as she does have books thanks
ps I know shes human wasnt going out for any alien kid books

It’s important to children of color to see the protagonist of stories be non-white once in a while.
