Description
Jake's life has been turned upside down. His dad was wounded in Afghanistan, and his mom is going to help care for him. That means Jake's going to have to spend the summer on Dewees Island with his grandmother. Dewees is a nature sanctuary--no cars or paved roads, no stores or restaurants. To make matters worse, Jake's grandmother doesn't believe in cable or the internet. Which means Jake has no cell phone, no video games ... no friends. But then he meets two other kids--one is also visiting the small island, and the other lives there. Forced together by circumstance and loneliness, they become inseparable. But when they find what they think is an abandoned boat, their adventure lands them in hot water! Their punishment? Turtle duty. Daily beach patrols at dawn checking for loggerhead sea turtle tracks initially sound pretty boring, but then a nest is destroyed. The three friends are determined to protect "their" nest. Can they save the loggerhead eggs from predators? And can Jake's growing love for the island and its inhabitants (be they two-legged, four-legged, feathered, of finned) help his father get well?
