Captain Hawaii

Summary: Action and adventure in Hawaii
Review: In this book Arron goes on a vacation to Hawaii and finds much more than he planned on. First he is chased by strange men and gets lost in a cave. He finds a backpack in the cave that belongs to the "missing" Vanblone. This backpack has journals that tell how to find a map. The map leads to the home of the Menehune. These are little men on the island. Arron finds the map and then is kidnapped by Mr. Mckraft (he also wants the map.) What will happen? Does Arron escape? Who gets the map? To find out what happens read Captain Hawaii. I never knew what was coming next; I couldn't predict what was going to happen, like you can in some books. The author kept me reading and hanging on till the very end. Captain Hawaii was full of thrills, mystery, and much more. I would recommend this book for my friends to read and you should too!

Summary: Action and adventure in Hawaii
Review: The book I just read lately was Captain Hawaii by Anthony Dana Arkin. I really enjoyed this book because it had a lot of adventure and lots of excitment as the author took you through Aaron's adventure in Hawaii. There were lots of intense passages such as "Suddenly I lost my grip and fell. Kate was gone. I slipped backward into a whirlwind of water, watching the Menehune race and laugh and wink their green cat eyes." page 234. After reading that passage I was in suspense and had to keep reading, and of course the next passage was just as intriguing as the first one. "I woke up with my head spinning and my stomach rolling. The sun beat on my eyelids, causing an awful pounding inside my brain. Someone splashed cold water on my face." page 234. After reading certain passages in this book, you just had to keep reading to find out what happened next, and that's what I loved about this story.
The theme of this book is that you never know how a family vacation can turn into such an adventure and have so many twists and turns. Not only comes adventure on a family vacation but there's also a teenage romance. I agree that this is an adventure story because everyone was trying to get the treasure map and a lot of the action was between the good and bad guys on the island. Along with adventure came romance between Aaron and Kate. This gave the story a little twist. My life can relate to the summer vacation romance at the beach because I always have fun meeting new people and hanging out with them for the week I'm there. My life has never been as adventurous as Aaron's with trying to find a treasure map, and being chased by Zodiacs and Menehunes.
I would recommend this book to anyone who first likes adventure and second likes to have a little romance in it too. This book is a fairly easy read. At some points in the book it's hard to put the book down because you can't wait to find out what happens next.
