Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Beccaâs made many visits to her grandmotherâs rustic cabin in the Gulf Islands, but this February, itâs different. With her mother expecting a baby, Becca is making the trip to Granâs all by herself. Suddenly, the place, and even her grandmother, feels foreign. Summerâs carefree, fun-filled island is now cold and unfamiliar, full of mystery and challenges, kind of like Becca herself  the visit has brought out all her insecurities. But when she finds an oyster full of pearls, it sets off a series of small but significant adventures that leave her seeing the island, her family, and herself through new eyes. As her motherâs pregnancy progresses, Becca returns to the island again and again. And with each new adventure  from watching the annual herring run in a sinking dinghy to skinny-dipping to learning to deal with bossy cousins  Becca gains a little more self-assurance. Funny, endearing, and completely true-to-life, Beccaâs journey is one all young readers can identify with.
