Overview
Selena Lucy Landry (named for a ship, as every sailorās child should be) has been frightened of the water ever since she lost her father at sea. But with no one else to care for her, sheās sent to foster with the Martinsāa large Anishinaabe family living on a lighthouse in the middle of stormy Lake Superior. Ā
The Martin family is big, hard-working, and close, and Lucyāwho has always been a dreamerāstruggles to fit in. Can she go one day without ruining the laundry or forgetting the sweeping?Ā Will she ever be less afraid of the lake?
Although life at the lighthouse isnāt what Lucy hoped for, it is beautifulāships come and go, waves pound the rocksāand it has one major advantage: Itās near the site of a famous shipwreck, a shipwreck that went down with a treasure her father wanted more than anything. If Lucy can find that treasureāa priceless ruby necklaceāwonāt it be like having PapaĀ back again, just a little bit?Ā
But someone else is hunting for the treasure, too. And as the lighthouse companyĀ becomes increasingly skeptical that the Martins can juggle Lucy and their duties, Lucy and the Martin children will need to find the necklace quicklyāor they may not have a home at all.
The Luminous Life of Lucy Landry is a timelessly sweet tale of found family from rising Ojibwe voice Anna Rose Johnson, author of NPR Best Book of the Year The Star That Always Stays.Ā Perfect for fans of L.M. Montgomery and Karina Yan Glaser!
"Lucy Landry is a charming and fanciful heroine reminiscent of Anne Shirley, who reminds us that even in dark times, we can be a light for others."āAlyssa Colman, author of Bank Street Best Book of the Year The Gilded Girl
