Beskrivning
Mary Beth Owens was inspired by heradmiration and concern for these critically endangered animals to write andillustrate this beautiful book. The narrator—a craggy, ancient jumby tree thatstands sentinel over the bay—observes a hawksbill’s arrival by night, herarduous trek to excavate a nest and bury her eggs, her solitary return to thesea, and the later diaspora of her hatchlings. Spare prose complements pagessaturated with Caribbean color or brooding in ghostly moonlight.
