"A warm-hearted novel ... balances profound loss with humor and hope." - Kate Allen, author of The Line Tender Thirteen-year-old Sarah Richardson is determined that her life will finally get unstuck this summer. She just knows it. Her to-do list? Brave the lake again. Save the loons. Stop missing Mom. Her one bright spot: volunteering at the local wild bird rehabilitation center. The summer looks even brighter when Sarah meets Theo, the boy staying at her family's Maine lakeside campground who cares about protecting the loons just like she does. But when Sarah's family may have to move, she adds a new to-do item: save their home. And when she suspects Dad is dating Theo's aunt, the naturalist helping research environmental dangers to the loons, Sarah is caught in a new world of grief. With the looming reality of losing her dad, her home, and the loons, Sarah must make a big statement to take control of her life. Capturing inspiration from her late mother's Appalachian Trail hiking journal, she boldly plans a solo wild adventure. But as her challenges mount, she wonders if her courage will earn her the voice she seeks-or if she's made a reckless choice that just might claim her life. "As sparkling, refreshing, and mysterious as a Maine lake in summertime." - Cathy Carr, author of 365 Days to Alaska
Autorenporträt
Donna Galanti wanted to be a writer ever since she attended an English school, housed in a magical castle, where her wild imagination was held back only by her itchy uniform (bowler hat and tie included!). She's the author of the popular illustrated middle-grade Unicorn Island series that School Library Journal says, "fans of unicorns and magic in the real world will enjoy" and the fantasy adventures, Joshua and the Lightning Road and Joshua and the Arrow Realm. Donna also writes thrillers for adults with her Element Trilogy paranormal suspense series. She has lived in fun locations including England, her family-owned campground in New Hampshire, and in Hawaii where she served as a U.S. Navy photographer. Donna is an avid outdoor adventurer and nature lover. She volunteers as a County Coordinator for the Old-Growth Forest Network and as an education volunteer with the National Audubon Society. When Donna's not wandering the woods seeking magic and wonder, you can usually find her biking or kayaking.
