About This Book

An imaginative, talkative orphan is mistakenly sent to live with a reserved brother and sister in a rural island community; her vivid fantasies, impulsive mistakes, and exuberant spirit transform their quiet household and animate the nearby village. She forges a devoted friendship with a kindred girl, clashes in school with a rival boy, and becomes central to local social life through concerts, clubs, and small-town dramas. Over years of schooling, youthful embarrassments, and personal trials she matures, discovers her talents, and finds a lasting sense of belonging within the community.
