In this story an Island girl can hear music in the ocean — not as a metaphor, but as melodies, percussion, harmonies ringing from the waves. She tries to find someone else in the town who can hear what she hears, but everyone is toonoisy and busy to pay attention. When a giant storm comes to her town, it makes an enormous cacophony — and in the silence afterwards, when the townspeople finally put down their work and come down to the water's edge, the girl finally meets a friend who can hear the music too. With lyrical words and beautiful illustrations, The Sea that Sings to Me is an ode to the specialconnection we have with the natural world.
