(4) 4-6 Illustrated by David Diaz. Sophie is determined to join her three uncles and two (boy) cousins on their transatlantic sail to England, home of her beloved grandfather Bompie. Told through the pages of Sophie's journal, the novel is rather too obviously a voyage of self-discovery. What works best is the protean nature of Sophie's relationships with her uncles and cousins, all of whom have some self-discoveries to make of their own.
