nakoa

Embrace the chop.

These are the wise words of Nakoa, an old man Kili meets while surfing one morning. Kili sees Nakoa riding the choppiest wave with amazing ease. Stunned at his seemly-impossible act, Kili asks how he rode the wave. Through Nakoa’s words, Kili learns not just how to be a better surfer, but also how determination, courage, and accepting support can enrich his life.

Kili and Nakoa draws inspiration from the Bible and teaches readers that even the roughest waves can be ridden with help from others.
