Tutu's Quilt: Ke Kapa Kuiki a Tutu

When news reaches a Hawaiian grandmother that Hawai?i has been annexed by the United States in July 1898, she sets to work on a quilt to show her family that, in a time of change, there is one thing that must never be forgotten. In English and Hawaiian, The Flag Quilt is a revised edition of When Silver Needles Swam, which appeared in 1998 to great acclaim, receiving along with other Hawaiian language books from Manoa Press the award Na Manu a Ka?ae from ?Ahahui ?Olelo Hawai?i for helping to preserve the Hawaiian language. James Rumford, an award-winning and internationally recognized author and illustrator of children?s books, makes his home in Honolulu.
