In the last 3 weeks on the HILO BOOK TOUR I have spoken to at least 3,000 school children. I can tell you the following: 1. Kids are awesome. 2. Explaining the expression, âThe tip of the icebergâ requires visual aids, but worth the effort. 3. Girls and boys say âAwwwâ to the exact same things. 4. Saying the word âbuttâ in any context gets a laugh. 5. Very few children know the story of KING KONG. (I put in a lot of work to rectify this. Youâre welcome)

It was 24 years ago today that Pedro Zamora died.
A hard truth is that heâs been gone longer than he was alive. He leaves behind an eternal legacy that still inspires people all over the world as well as a generation of young people who werenât born when we all came to know him.
We still miss him. I wish he had been to our wedding. I wish he could meet our children. I wish he could have been a father. I wish he could still fight for us. We need heroes.
Heâd be proud of whatâs been achieved. Heâd be enraged with all the injustice.
We fight in his memory.
