“Are we there yet?” How often we’ve heard those words, begging for finality to an outing. Yet, the adventure along the way can be a road to many discoveries. The Road to Hana shows how the journey can be a much more valuable experience than simply reaching a destination. In this story, the child is the wise one who yearns to explore nature’s wonders along the route, while the adults who take her are too caught up in completing a task instead of appreciating the activity. In the end, the child helps the elders appreciate the beauty of the journey.

My parents would take my brother and I on vacation to one of the Hawaiian islands and Disneyland yearly. The Hana area of Maui has always been one of my favorite places to visit from being a child to now as an adult.The Road to Hana book is brilliantly written by Larry Gerston with beautiful illustrations by Gary Beattie. I read this book to my 2.5 year old son and he enjoyed the book tremendously. The beautiful illustrations and simplicity of the story kept him interested.*Possible Spoilers to the book below*The book is about a young girl named Gia Gabriella and her Aunt Rachel and Uncle Lee who are vacationing on the island of Maui. Gia is filled with great excitement and anticipation at the idea of their drive on 'The Road to Hana.' Aunt Rachel reminds her husband that they have a lot to accomplish today and Uncle Lee reminds both Rachel and Gia that he also has a surfing lesson that same day. Gia has learned to tell time and realized they wouldn't have enough time to stop and enjoy the drive. In the end they missed some of the interesting things on the way i.e. The Road to Hana because they were rushing. The good news is they were able to realize they were rushing and decided to take it slow and enjoy the drive back to the hotel, meaning they were able to take in the sights and enjoy things they could have missed.Reading this book made me realize:•journey over destination is more important•don't jam pack your schedules for vacations•you don't always need to make reservations•sometimes taking it slow is bestIf you do travel on The Road to Hana be sure to enjoy:•The waterfalls•The amazing views•The fruit stands along the way•Ohe'o Gulch•Black Sand beachNoelle's Notes:•Be it Hana or some other place, put the smart phone down and remember life before technology. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy the journey and never forget: Life is Beautiful!!!

She said her favorite part was the girl, Hana. I told her the girl's name was Gia, and they were going to the town Hana. I laughed when she asked me why the town had a person's name. She also said she liked the rainbow eucalyptus and the actual rainbow at the end of the story. I like the reversal in the story. It is nice to see a book portray adults learning from children. If you think about it, we could learn a lot from kids if we pay more attention.

I bought these books for them because of the valuable lesson contained within the pages of "Road to Hana". We unfortunately live in an extremely fast paced society and with "push button" everything, kids and adults alike have forgotten the essence of simplicity in life. If you've ever been to Maui, you know that Hana is always referred to as a mystical place and tourists from all over sprint to get out there because of the "long trip". Many are let down because there is truly nothing in Hana other than a general store. The "Road to Hana", as Larry Gerston so elequently conveyed, is where the true riches and beauty lie. It is the ultimate example in life, that reminds us to slow down and embrace the journey because that is where the rewards and joy are held, not in the destination. Although this is a children's book, I believe many adults could gain a lot of perspective from reading it also. Thank you for bringing this story to life in such a beautiful way Mr. Gerston, it is an important message everyone can benefit from.
