Boardbook, 16 pp.

When it’s hot (super hot), the only way to cool the day is to enjoy one of Hawai‘i’s favorite local treats: Shave Ice. There are dozens of flavors to choose from, and kids will have fun naming all of them!

It’s the perfect read-aloud book that reads like a shave ice rap listing a variety of flavors like pineapple, coconut, lilikoʻi, too, watermelon, li hing mui, grape, honeydew.
