Product Overview
The story of nine-year-old Emma, who lives by the beach with family and her dog Rufus. Through her adventures with Rufus at her side, she discovers the beauties and mysteries of the seashore, and experiences that most powerful of forces, the hurricane. Children will delight in Emma's explorations of nature, learning in the process about sea turtles, crabs, gulls, and other wonders. Hightower-Patterson's rich watercolors bring to life the beauty of the Southeast coast in an affirmation of hope, a family's love, and the cycle of life.
