The Sea in Winter
by Christine Day
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5. This is a quiet, moving novel about Maisie, whose knee injury at ballet has her in a deep funk. Ballet has been her entire life, and even with a supportive family, she finds herself unable to respond to friends’ calls and texts, and feels a deep sense of dread. A family vacation to the coast, near the community where her mother grew up, though meant to heal her, exposes these wounds further. With a Native American family at the center and a strong message of hope, hand this to thoughtful readers. Recommended for grades 5-8.
