(3) YA Noah and his sister, Lo, discover their grandmother's sea tales are more than fantasy in this thoughtful blend of mythology and contemporary realism. What stands out is Cornwell's ability to make Grandmother Gemm's lesbian love affair, Lo's eating disorder, Noah's fascination with marine research, and interracial adoption all jibe with Selkie mythology and how questions about complex identities can infuse--and confuse--everyone.
