Green Mango Magic (An Avon Camelot Book) Book

Maile has been lonely since her mother died and her father and brother left their Hawaiian home.She spends most days with her grandmother-until a girl named Brooke arrives from the mainland. At last Maile has a friend her own age, one who understands her problems-because she has a few of her own.Brooke is funny and spunky. She doesn't even make a big deal about being treated for cancer and losing all her hair. Maile is happy again until she begins to worry that Brooke will get sick and Maile will lose her new friend, too. Maile has heard of magical Hawaiian cures and hopes to get Brooke healthy with a diet of poi and a visit to a kahuna, a healer who lives in the mountains. Instead, Maile discovers the real island magic of ho'oponopono, "how to make things right again," and through her desire to cure Brooke learns the secret to healing her own broken heart. 00-01 Young Reader's Choice Award Program Masterlist Read More
