About this listen
"Maui Misadventures: Chickens, a Cat, and Homeschooling Around the Island" is a delightful and heartwarming true story about a courageous mother's adventurous journey of homeschooling her two daughters on the breathtaking island of Maui. The narrative is brimming with unforgettable characters and humorous situations, offering an authentic glimpse into island life and the trials and triumphs of homeschooling—well, unschooling.
One day, a mysterious cat appears and takes command of their home with a regal air, bringing endless amusement and a fair share of confusion. When the husband introduces chickens into the household, the chaos reaches new heights as these feathered friends become part of the family, adding a unique twist to their daily escapades.
The most remarkable aspect of the story is the unexpected friendship between the cat and the chickens. Their quirky and charming interactions create some of the most comedic and memorable moments, adding a layer of enchantment to the tale.
We also witness the mom's valiant efforts at homeschooling as she embarks on daily field trips around the island with the intention of teaching multiplication tables later. More often than not, however, exhaustion prevails, and they all nap instead.
"Maui Misadventures" is a rollercoaster of laughter, learning, and love. It beautifully captures the delights and challenges of family life, the splendor of Maui, and the lessons gleaned from unexpected friendships. This hilarious and heartwarming adventure reminds us of life's wonderful madness and the unexpected joy it offers when we embrace the journey.

What if the very parts of yourself you’ve been trying to hide, fix, or escape are actually the key to your deepest transformation? Your wounds, self-doubt, and repeating negative cycles aren’t random, they're messages from your shadows, demanding to be heard. But most healing approaches fail because they separate personal growth from relationships. Until you address both, true rebirth remains out of reach.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Sweet, Funny and Heartwarming
The author's honesty about the challenges of homeschooling while living on a tropical island was refreshing. I couldn't stop laughing at the chaos of trying to balance education with island life. And then there's the cat and the chickens – the most unlikely and hilarious additions to their family.
It's a beautiful reminder that life doesn't always go according to plan, but it's the unexpected moments that make it truly magical. I found myself smiling throughout the whole book, and I even caught myself out loud laughing at some of the antics. If you need a good laugh and a heartwarming story, this book is perfect.

Entertaining and Super Fun!
Holy cow, this was such a fun listen! The adventures and misadventures of this group were fantastic. Rumba was most certainly my favorite. The perspective of stories through child eyes is so delightful and takes to a place I haven't been is long time! The homeschooling perspective was interesting, nuanced and fun. I've never been to Maui but if its anything like the picture painted in this book it must be fabulous! I wonder if the chickens are truly running around everywhere. Nevertheless, I loved it!
