Secrets in the Attic (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798278008422)

An adventurous boy's curiosity uncovers a family secret in this heartwarming Christmas tale.

In the snow-covered whaling town of New Bedford, nine-year-old Junior finds himself drawn to the one place he's been forbidden to go-the attic. But when his beloved grandmother hints that there are hidden memories locked away up there, Junior can't resist the pull. What he discovers-an old portrait, mysterious letters, and a scrimshaw whale's tooth-sets him on a journey through hidden history, lost love, and a legacy tied to the sea.

As Christmas approaches, Junior makes a heartfelt wish to Santa-not for toys or treats, but to mend the hearts of his mother and grandmother. With the help of his loyal dog, a kind-hearted sailor, and his own boundless imagination, Junior may just uncover more than anyone ever expected.

Secrets in the Attic is a tender coming-of-age story filled with holiday warmth, generational bonds, and the enduring power of hope.
