Publisher's Note
When Caroline, her cousin from France, comes to visit her at her grandparent's island cottage in Michigan during the summer of 1942, fourteen-year-old Belle's thoughts of a playful summer turn serious when she learns about the ravages of war through Caroline's painful stories of what is going on in her native land.

Industry Reviews
"Beautifully measured writing captures the smell of lake breezes, the feel of sand between the toes and the emotional ache of growing up when change is not a choice. An exceptional portrayal of how war becomes personal."
