Synopsis:
Finn lives in a small fishing village and he loves his simple, rough-and-tumble life: listening to the gulls, savoring the salty smells of the market and setting fishing lines in the early morning. But when he befriends the Finer family, outsiders in an otherwise close-knit community, the bonds of friendship and familial loyalty are tested. This thoughtfully written, fast-paced novel has a powerful sense of place and of the ways in which friendships and loyalties are forged. The atmospheric illustrations include maps of Finn's village, which is based on the author's childhood home in Spurn Point, at the mouth of the River Humber in Yorkshire, England.

Richard Knight has been an elementary school teacher for over twenty years and now lives with his family in the Pennines Mountains in northern England.

Giovanni Manna is an award-winning artist who works mainly with watercolors, soft pastels and etching to create his distinctive style. Giovanni lives with his family in Bologna, Italy, and teaches illustration and watercolor technique at the International School of Illustration in Sarmede, Italy.
