“Sometimes it’s better to be different” is a big take away from the book because it shows that beginning original is a good thing. “The Red-Headed Hawaiian” by Chris Mckinley and Rudy Puana is about life lessons and how hard work and dedication pays off and can get you anywhere. It is also about a redheaded boy from Kahalu’u‚ Oahu that was dealt with many difficulties as a child but later in life achieved in life. It reveals that people usually give up but if they work hard and are persistent‚ it
