No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
From the Newbery Awardβwinning author of Sarah, Plain and Tall comes a story about one brave girl who saves her family from losing everything. In a starred review, Publishers Weekly calls this lyrical tale βmelodic, poetic, and enchanting.β
Everyone in Lucyβs family sings. Opera. Rap. Lullabies. Everyone, except Lucy. Lucy canβt sing; her voice wonβt come out.
Just like singing, helping Aunt Frankie prepare for flooding season is a family traditionβeven if Frankie doesnβt want the help. And this year, when the flood arrives and danger finds its way into the heart of Lucyβs family, Lucy will need to find her voice to save her brother.
βFilled with little moments of quiet wisdom and gentle humor, Newbery winner MacLachlan's story about family love soarsβ (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).
