Since her mother left, Pearl has spent more and more time in the ocean, fishing to help her father pay the bills.
But when she gets mixed up with a group of illegal abalone poachers and starts diving near a restricted wreck, Pearl meets an ancient sea monster named Otto—who isn’t quite as monstrous as she thought. And when Otto’s enemies come back to finish what they started, Pearl is the only one who can save him, but only if she has the courage to let go of her past and open up to others—including the girl from class she’s got a crush on.
With her one-eyed pup sidekick and a whole lot of nerve, Pearl may just be able to save Otto and finally tell the truth to her father… and, more importantly, to herself. With vibrant full-color illustrations, Pearl of the Sea is a South African adventure story exploring how we are both bound to and freed by nature, seen through the eyes of a tough teen-aged heroine determined to live life by her own rules.
A personal testimony detailing the life of a teenage patient in a
tuberculosis hospital taken from his daily diary entries. Like
others he was cooped up and restricted, while gratefully receiving
care and treatment from surgeons and nursing staff under the
watchful eye of strict yet sympathetic Sisters and Matrons. This is
an entertaining read involving co-operation and modest revolt
including nruse chasing, illicit pub crawls, and regular carpeting
by the Ward Sister and Medical Superintendent. Yet accompanying the
lighter moments is an important medical, social and personal record
of the 1950s sanatorium experience.
