Summer has begun on Martha' s Vineyard, but Gayle isn' t interested. Not in working at an ice cream stand. Not in softball, since she broke her arm on a bad play and hasn' t seen her team since. Not even in Shark!, the big Hollywood movie being filmed on the island. All she wants to do is help her mother open their long-planned ice cream stand. But because of Gayle' s hospital bills, they don' t have the money to do even that. Enter Maddie and Elijah, Gayle' s new friends and her ticket off this cursed island. With their help, Gayle schemes to win a youth film contest and use the prize money to get the ice cream stand up and running. But those plans quickly go awry as their movie uncovers a long-dormant island mystery and the friends' very reasons for creating the film irrevocably shift.
Shark Summer is bursting with vibrant, expressive art that transports the reader to a summer on Martha' s Vineyard, with a mystery that weaves through local gossip and school drama. The characters are distinct and relatable - kids with unique interests and big dreams, trying to figure out how to be good friends to each other. It' s a lovely read! --Molly Knox Ostertag, author-illustrator of the Witch Boy series
