Welcome to Dog Beach

by Lisa Greenwald

Published 15 April 2014
Eleven-year-old Remy loves Seagate, the island where her grandmother had a house and where her family spends every summer holidays. But this year’s different. Remy misses her dog, Danish, who recently passed away. The usual Seagate traditions don’t feel the same—and neither does her relationship with her two best friends, Micayla and Bennett. Micayla’s family is moving to Seagate year-round, and she’s spending more time with the year-round kids. And Bennett’s doing “boy stuff” with the new kid Calvin and his snobby sister, Claire. Remy takes comfort in the company of Dog Beach—which is where she hatches her plan to bring her friends closer and recapture the Seagate magic.
This start of a new series is filled with summer treats, activities, and the spirit of friendship and invention that are Greenwald’s trademarks.
