Book Description: CURSES AREN’T REAL. At least, that’s what twelve-year-old part-Hawaiian Anna Leilani Kamaʻehu thinks when she listens to her grandma’s folktales about sacred flowers and family guardians.
Malia Maunakea is a Kānaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian) writer who grew up on Hawaiʻi Island and Oʻahu before relocating to the continent for college. She writes both middle-grade fiction and nonfiction.
