Carla Glembe's The Story Of Hula is a picturebook with a narrative audio CD all about the meaning and expression of the Hawaiian hula dance. Teaching young people about the origins and symbolic values behind traditional hula costume, and the power of the story behind the dance that is handed down through generations, The Story Of Hula is a delightful introduction to other cultures and celebrations. Simple color illustrations by Vicky Holt Takamine, a glossary of Hawaiian terms and a final page of historic notes round out this enjoyable and educational volume.
