Junonia

For Alice Rice, returning to the beach cottage–a cottage named Scallop–where she has always celebrated her birthday is a special occasion, the highlight of her annual family vacation.

Who will see the first dolphin this time? The first pelican? What will have changed? Stayed the same? And will this be the year she finally finds a junonia shell?

Alice’s friends are all returning, too. And she’s certain her parents have the best party planned for her. Alice can’t wait. If she’s lucky, everything in this coming of age story will be absolutely perfect. But will Alice be lucky?
