This attractive entry in the It's My State! series is a combination history-travel book. Beginning with a geological description of the Hawaiian Islands, the text goes on to discuss the flora and fauna, with a spread of close-ups of local animals. A historical survey moves into a discussion of how life is lived on the islands today. Dotted with snippets of information highlighted in colored balloons and illustrated with fine, crisp photographs, this gives full coverage to one of the most popular states for visitors.
