๐ The Scoop
It's the summer of 1942. At her grandparents' island cottage in Michigan, 14โyearโold Belle excitedly awaits the arrival of her exotic older cousin, Carolyn. Belle's expecting worldly sophistication and French style. But Carolyn brings much more than that: she carries the troubling reality of the World War that is ravaging her home. Turtle Island will never be the same again.
Set against the backdrop of breezy island cottages, this heartrending tale from National Book Award medalist Gloria Whelan is the story of a beautiful place and a special friendshipโand how events thousands of miles away shaped them both.
Genre: Juvenile Fiction / Historical / United States / 20th Century (fancy, right?)
