Gifts from the Sea

by Natalie Kinsey-Warnock
home, paperback, 112 pages
genre: children's coming-of-age

Enjoyable little book. Set in the 1846 on an island with a lighthouse, Quila and her father have just buried her mother when a baby shows up wrapped in a mattress after a storm. Caring for little Celia gives them both a new lease on life . . . until Margaret shows up. Cute story.
