About This Item
New York, NY: Scholastic, 2002. Advance Reading Copy (ARC) . Soft cover. New/None as Issued. BRAND NEW COPY. Advance Reading Copy/Uncorrected Proof. Borrowing novelist and author Alice Hoffman's (1952 -) words, this is a "modern fairy tale about three children who are lost before they every leave home". The dry and dusty town of Oak Grove, haunted by a past flood, is a place where everybody dreads water. That is, except two brothers, known as Trout and Eel for their darting quickness and the mysterious webbing between their fingers and toes; the boys dream of the farthest seas and a hazy magical past. And, while everybody in town celebrates brilliant, rainless days, for 13 year-old Martha Glimmer the very daily sameness seemed to freeze the grief of her mother's death for both herself and her father. So it was, the three buddies decide to run away. Magically the rains camey, and though never really having left town, the three complete a journey of the soul. A reminder that love is something we never lose.
