We discuss a Historical American Girl book every other month with a correlated craft. This month's book is Nanea: The Spirit of Aloha.
Join us for our bi-monthly American Girl book club! Read about important parts of America's past through the eyes of a young girl. This month's book is Nanea: The Spirit of Aloha.
American Girl has recommended their historical character books for ages 8 and up, but we will leave it to guardian's discretion.
We will use half of our time reading the book and the last half doing a correlated craft!
About The Spirit of Aloha:
Nanea Mitchell may be the youngest in her family, but she knows she’s old enough to do grown-up things. Before she can prove she’s ready for responsibility, the unthinkable happens. Japan attacks Pearl Harbor—the naval base where her father works—and America is at war! Now Nanea must cope with missing friends and family member, rumors of additional attacks, and lonely nighttime blackouts. As the war wears on, Nanea faces difficult chores and choices. With the spirit of aloha—love, understanding and compassion—Nanea helps others in ways she never imagined.
