Publisher's summary

Bloomsbury presents When Sea Becomes Sky by Gillian McDunn, read by Brenna Larsen.

In this heartfelt summer story, acclaimed author Gillian McDunn paints a stunning portrait of the bond of siblings and the love we’ll always carry with us.

Bex and Davey's summer in the saltmarsh is different this year, thanks to the record-breaking drought. Even the fish seem listless—and each day the water level lowers farther. When they discover a mysterious underwater statue, they're thrilled at the chance to solve the puzzle of its origin. This is the summer adventure they've been waiting for.

When they learn of a development plan that will destroy their special spot, they'll need to act quickly. Unfortunately, sometimes progress happens whether you're ready or not. What will it mean if Bex and Davey lose their corner of the marsh where otters frolic and dragonflies buzz—their favorite place to be siblings together?

As Bex and Davey attempt to save the statue and their beloved marsh, they come to see that the truth is not as simple as it seems . . . ultimately discovering so much more about life, permanence, love, and loss than they ever expected.

Award-winning author Gillian McDunn crafts a gorgeous story of love and siblinghood, of secret statues and island life, of holding on and letting go.

When Sea Becomes Sky

I like the telling of the story. I suspected tragedy was gonna happen, at first I thought mom was terminally ill. Then I thought Davey was a ghost. I am 55 years old and I ugly cried reading this book. The telling of Dave's tragic end was perfectly done even though it was painfully sad. The book was very well written and the audio was pleasant to listen to. I loved how attached to thing the young girl got, the socks, the live oak tree, the otters,the statue, I understand why she kept her brother with her on her adventures.
