(3) 4-6 Twelve-year-old Raleia and eighty-eight-year-old recluse Ian forge an unlikely and combative but ultimately rejuvenating friendship during a summer in Tidal, Maine. Ian becomes the catalyst for Rale's realization that nothing can compete with living in the here and now. Self-growth is the only action here, but Rale and Ian are sympathetic, fully realized characters.
