| Abstract | Going back centuries, the Kingdoms of Hawaii and Great Britain have shared an admiration for celebrations, royalty, and flowers. That connection is explored in Minako Ishii's flip book, May Day/Lei Day. May Day tells how this special holiday is celebrated in England, where it originated over 700 years ago and describes how Hawaii came to embrace it as Lei Day. Lei Day describes how local customs commemorate Hawaii's royal history and details the significance of color and materials used to make the beautiful lei. |
