Om den här e-boken
“The real-life dynamics between the sisters is humorous and touching. . . . This heartwarming story is hard to put down.” —School Library Journal
Twelve-year-old Marigold Silver is hoping to get her first kiss from her big crush this summer—and get her acting career rolling in Los Angeles. But her plan comes crashing down when her parents send her to Cape Cod along with her sisters, Zinnia and little Lily, to visit their Aunt Sunny. Now these LA girls are stuck in a small town in Massachusetts, and they have to adjust to things like sharing a room and living without a TV. There isn’t even cellphone service!
With the help of Aunt Sunny’s cheery disposition and her yummy brownies, though, the girls are won over—and before they know it, they’re cracking lobster shells at clambakes, making new friends, and even organizing a local talent show. But after a Hollywood celebrity arrives in town, Marigold is soon going to face a tough decision . . .
Full of moments both humorous and reflective, The Forget-Me-Not Summer is about three girls facing their fears, adjusting to change, and learning how to band together as the strongest version of themselves: sisters.
“Reminiscent of the Penderwicks series . . . a book that might well become a favorite.” —Booklist (starred review)
