This WAYFINDERS book is about Hawaiian educator, scholar, composer, and author Mary Kawena Pukui, who spent her life documenting, preserving, and teaching ‘ōlelo Hawai‘i and Hawaiian history, culture, and traditions for future generations. She translated countless works and interviewed many kūpuna in the Hawaiian language so that today’s Hawaiian language learners can hear the Hawaiian spoken by their elders, which provides a valuable connection to the past.
