Island of the Aunts

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Kevin Hawkes. Kidnapped by three kind but eccentric women who live on an uncharted island, Minette and Fabio realize that they actually prefer their new lives and enjoy participating in the elderly sisters' efforts to rescue creatures in distress. The third kidnapped child is a spoiled brat, and his efforts to contact his father put everyone on the island in grave danger. A humorous and imaginative (if far-fetched) fantasy with an unusual ecological bent.
