High Hopes On Sea
Author: Jenny Wagner Illustrated by Gregory Rogers
The Hope family live by the sea, in a house with its hands in its pockets and a
puppy named Princess Sassy.
Mr Hope invents wonderful new devices, Mrs. Hope likes burnt toast. Marissa
watches the waves. And Dion listens to the whispers of the wind.
But when Mr. Owen Mortlock and his brother Selwyn decide to build some
apartments, everything is suddenly different.
The wind goes away, the ocean vanishes from their windows, and that's not even
the worst bit... But of course, there's always hope... ...and there's always a breeze somewhere.
This book is suitable as a read alone for about the ages 7-10 years but is a great read aloud story for younger children.
