This is a very quick and cute children's adventure story about a pair of siblings who get swept ashore a mystical island around Hawaii and must traverse the land and creatures in order to return home.

It is written nicely, though I wonder at times if there wasn't a little too much for a child to work through, especially the often arduous conversations that sometimes pop up.

I will forever compare any children's adventure stories to Swallows and Amazons, and of course this comes nowhere near, but it is well-rounded and has some fun elements I'm sure some kids will enjoy, even if the name Chaeley (pronounced like Kayleigh) does irritate you the more you read it.
