Get ready for an adventure with Monica and her adorable floppy-eared friend, Mu'olo! Join them as they face challenges, share giggles and tears, and discover the bond that makes them family. From tricky twists to happy turns, this story is all about friendship, courage, and the joy of having a furry best friend. Get ready to smile, laugh, and cheer for Monica and Mu'olo in their fantastic journey together!
I have created this book for kids around the ages of 8 through 11. The journey, struggles, and excitement are best related to those at a similar time in their lives as Monica. I hope that anyone reading Mu'olo resonates with their journey.
The themes woven into Mu'olo focus on how the seemingly impossible love of a puppy can lead to happiness. The story revolves around the notion that love and companionship, even in unexpected or unconventional forms, can bring joy and fulfillment.
I grew up in a military family. I fell in love with Hawai’i on a trip to Japan when I was around 9 years old. I found my way back as an adult, married, became a registered nurse, worked in the neonatal unit of Kapiolani Medical Center. As a coach and referee for AYSO soccer, I enjoyed
helping children develop positively while gaining confidence in themselves. I also began studying Hawaiian and have continued intermittently since 2000. Writing stories has been an interest of mine since elementary
school, seriously pursuing it since 2018. My writing focuses on children and events both in Hawai’i and Idaho.
