Angel Bear in Heavenly Hawaii

June 2002

Aloha and Mahalo!

(Hello and Thank You for visiting our page!)

Once upon a time, Angel Bear, a timid little mound of fluff, was carefully selected to accompany Mr. & Mrs. Johnson as they took off, prepared to celebrate their 30th wedding anniversary on an excursion to one of the most beautiful of all the Hawaiian islands, Maui.

After all, what better place to send Angel Bear than Heavenly Hawaii?

Come along with us as we begin our "island-hopping" year! As our bears visit islands around the world, our third graders will learn about the people, history and culture surrounding each island.

So, for now, off we go ... to Maui!
