Description:Two kids discover the contrast in body size and eating habits between people today and their Micronesian ancestors when Lima, their favorite storyteller, tells the story of the mythic giant Uab and how the islands of Palau were formed. The children realize that many Micronesians, like Lima, are "giants" when compared to the body shapes they see of Micronesians in the past, and learn that overeating can lead to diabetes and have fatal consequences.
