Washashore

WINNER OF THE 2014 GREEN EARTH BOOK AWARD
This year, everything changes for Clementine Harper.
Fourteen-year-old Clementine has left her city life in Boston to spend the winter on Martha€s Vineyard. She€s what the locals call a €œWashashore€ (WASH-a-shore) €¦ someone who has come to live on the island but isn€t from there. An outsider.
Clem doesn€t have any friends and doesn€t fit in. Her mom and dad aren€t getting along. Coco, her best friend, is three hours away.
But then Clem finds a fallen bird€"an osprey€"on the beach. And she meets a lonely boy named Daniel.
And everything changes €¦
