Public Library Best Book of the Year "The sight of a campfire on a
distant island...proves the catalyst for a series of discoveries
and events-some poignant, some frightening-that Ms. Wolk unfolds
with uncommon grace." -The Wall Street Journal "Crow is a
determined and dynamic heroine." -Publishers Weekly "Beautiful,
evocative." -Kirkus The moving story of an orphan, determined to
know her own history, who discovers the true meaning of family.
Twelve-year-old Crow has lived her entire life on a tiny, isolated
piece of the starkly beautiful Elizabeth Islands in Massachusetts.
Abandoned and set adrift in a small boat when she was just hours
old, Crow's only companions are Osh, the man who rescued and raised
her, and Miss Maggie, their fierce and affectionate neighbor across
the sandbar. Crow has always been curious about the world around
her, but it isn't until the night a mysterious fire appears across
the water that the unspoken question of her own history forms in
her heart. Soon, an unstoppable chain of events is triggered,
leading Crow down a path of discovery and danger. Vivid and
heart-wrenching, Lauren Wolk's Beyond the Bright Sea is a
gorgeously crafted and tensely paced tale that explores questions
of identity, belonging, and the true meaning of family.
