Riptides
Pirate treasure, splintered families, the impacts of climate change, a determined boy, and a compelling immigrant blend together in this adventure for younger teens and middle-grade readers.
“Riptides is a lively, fast-paced novel about a 13-year-old boy in coastal Nova Scotia trying to find his place in the world despite an absent father and a family financial crisis.
Cam O’Connell harvests rockweed for cash and fends off a mean-spirited boy while becoming an ally to a new girl in the community. There's also danger lurking in the waters along these shores and Cam must use his strength, wits and willpower to avert disaster.”
Lesley Choyce, author of "Nova Scotia: Shaped by the Sea"
