Dragons, dragons, & more dragons🐉 . I gave dragons & mini dragon books on Halloween & they were most popular. Huzzah for more dragons & dragon mini books to give because this world needs some dragons 🐉.

Today I have mini sea horse/sea dragon coloring books w/ little glow in the dark sea horses to give to Maui kids. Or anyone who needs art & a treat. I also have mantas left so it’s officially Manta Monday. After I staple the mini books I’ll take A’a Roots pages for their coloring box because they provide the coloring for kids while they wait to eat. A busy author is a happy author 📕✨😊🌴.

On my Maui adventures I give books, mini books, & little treasures to kids. I also give them to teachers, parents, grandparents, teens, & grown ups. I give to anyone who needs a treat but I only give to people who choose to interact with me. Luckily I’ve always been one of those approachable people 😂 so I have many opportunities to give. The gecko fidget toys and the glow in the dark mini turtles were both extremely popular and I’m a happy author because I have more of both coming this week. You know I have endless gecko & turtle poems to turn into mini books because, Hawai’i 🌺🌴

I already gave away little seals & monk seal mini books but in light of recent Maui events I have ordered 30 more mini seals. Then whenever there’s a monk seal I can help educate people with this poem approved by The Hawai’i Monk Seal Foundation.

Hawaiian Monk Seal'

I'm a Hawaiian monk seal special and rare,
I'm highly endangered and I need your care.
Dog that runs in rough water they call me,
I am only found in the Hawaiian sea.

For millions of years long before man came,
Now I'm unique no seals are the same.
Just over a thousand of us are still here,
And without your help we will all disappear.

We'll no longer be here to swim and play,
Or relax on the beach on a sunny day.
Or hunt the deep coral where we catch fish,
And spiney lobster a favorite dish.

Sometimes sharks hunt me if they can,
But what threatens me most is encroachment of man.
I get caught in your nets and ocean debris,
And sometimes I can't get myself free.

The beaches where we relax and have pups,
Are crowded with people and all filled up.
There are many people and we are so few,
So if you see me here's what to do.

If you are lucky and I'm on your beach,
For protection and safety stay out of reach.
If you find I have hauled out of the sea,
Always use the rule of thumb with me.

If you see a seal or a mom and pup,
Put out your hand, stick your thumb up,
Turn your thumb to the side,
Behind your thumb I should hide.

Then you're far enough away,
And we can both enjoy the sunny day.
Clean up your nets and debris,
Never leave them in the sea.

The rule all people should live by,
When I'm on the beach letting sleeping seals lie.
With your kokua, help and care,
And education so people are aware.
In the future there will continue to be,
The dogs who swim in the rough sea.

The little hippos & mini hippopotamus coloring books were very popular and since I adore the little hippos myself I have 30 more on the way to give. Because, hippos 🦛 😂.

Of course on May the 4th I wore my Jedi suit & had little aliens and Star Wars mini books to give, because The Force is with me. My noisy lightsaber is the best thing ever ✨👽😊.

I couldn’t resist the little axolotls to give to people with the mini amphibian books. Then I had to write this axolotl poem to go with them 😂. My big axolotls name is Axol Rose, because he’s a pink axolotl.

‘The Axolotl’s Story’

Hello human child I see you staring at me,
You’re wondering and thinking, ‘What could that animal be?”
I’ll tell you a story and when my story’s through,
You’ll know I’m an axolotl and everything I do.

I’m an amphibian these are animals that change,
Most go through metamorphosis and that is not so strange.
Frogs, toads and caecilians are part of my family tree.
And Axolotls are salamanders that’s my pedigree.

I started life in a jelly egg an egg without a shell.
So it had to be laid in fresh water where axolotls dwell.
Laid in wetlands and lake systems in highland Mexico,
Because this is the only place in the world wild axolotls grow.

Once I had grown a while in my jelly egg,
I emerged as a larval tadpole and I had no legs.
Most amphibians start their life this way,
But axolotls don’t metamorphose this is how we stay.

I kept my juvenile form, my external gills, and tail.
I’ll stay in water all my life on land I’ll never dwell.
And axolotls have super powers we can regenerate our parts,
We can regrow our arms and legs, our brains, and even hearts.

Humans keep us to study this phenomenon,
We’re kept for research and as pets but in the wild we’re almost gone.
In the wild we’re endangered and critically,
Last time wild axolotls were seen there were only three.

Perhaps one day the wetlands and lakes of highland Mexico,
Will be repaired by man so axolotls can go,
Back to our natural habitat where we were meant to be,
Axolotls never growing up swimming wild and free.

I’m a lucky author. I’ve been given the gift of copy pages donated by Mail Services Plus. I play an online game & win credits then order little animals that match books. Now everywhere I go on Maui I can give art, literature, and a little gift to anyone that needs it. This week I’m doing rays from ‘Come to The Sea With Me’. So cute the little mantas are 📚❤️✨.

I’ve been off social media for 4 years. It was important to return for the books as grants I apply for look at ‘social media presence’. I was asked when my last Poetry Coloring Slam with Sam was. It was the Pirate Palooza at A’a Roots for International Talk Like a Pirate Day. We had fabulous fun coloring, dressing up as pirates, parlaying for Major B***y, and dancing to disco during the Pirate Bo**ie Boogie. I’m happy to do themed Poetry Coloring Slams with Sam anywhere I’m invited. But Auntie Sam, The Queen of Nonsense, only goes where she’s invited because what’s meant to be will come to me 📕🌈❤️.

‘Hawaiian Monk Seal'

I'm a Hawaiian monk seal special and rare,
I'm highly endangered and I need your care.
Dog that runs in rough water they call me,
I am only found in the Hawaiian sea.

For millions of years long before man came,
Now I'm unique no seals are the same.
Just over a thousand of us are still here,
And without your help we will all disappear.

We'll no longer be here to swim and play,
Or relax on the beach on a sunny day.
Or hunt the deep coral where we catch fish,
And spiney lobster a favorite dish.

Sometimes sharks hunt me if they can,
But what threatens me most is encroachment of man.
I get caught in your nets and ocean debris,
And sometimes I can't get myself free.

The beaches where we relax and have pups,
Are crowded with people and all filled up.
There are many people and we are so few,
So if you see me here's what to do.

If you are lucky and I'm on your beach,
For protection and safety stay out of reach.
If you find I have hauled out of the sea,
Always use the rule of thumb with me.

If you see a seal or a mom and pup,
Put out your hand, stick your thumb up,

Behind your thumb I should hide.

And we can both enjoy the sunny day.

Never leave them in the sea.

When I'm on the beach letting sleeping seals lie.
With your kokua, help and care,
And education so people are aware.
In the future there will continue to be,
The dogs who swim in the rough sea.
