Long, long ago, on the Island of Hawaii, there lived two beautiful goddesses... 
So begins the retelling of the classic Hawaiian legend--a tale of fire and ice--when Pele ventured off her fiery mountaintop to make mischief and challenge Poliahu to a sled race down the snowy slopes of Mauna Kea. 
It is a story about the power of nature, the power of wills, the power of skill, and an explanation of why the Big Island, to this day, is an island of contrasts.

Tired and in need of a rest, Santa decides to leave the North Pole just weeks before Christmas. The perfect place to relax and just be? Hawaii, of course the islands in the sea, where Santa floats above the fishes, learns hula, and eats shave ice. The local newspaper reports Santa spottings everywhere: surfing the North Shore, paddling canoe, and shopping for slippers. Will Santa return to the North Pole in time for Christmas? Luckily two children help Santa realize he can keep Hawaii in his heart, and together, they show him how to share the islands with the world.
