Set on Harmony Island, most stories emerge from the island itself. You will read a personal narrative about the challenge of crossing from mainland to island in a small boat on a stormy winter night. Two stories explore the event of an elderly neighbor's wandering away into the woods and the community's response. \"Without Him\" captures in poetry the rhythms of a CPR rescue. \"She Talks to Flowers\" is a whimsical poem about a life-altering relationship with plants. Once, the author and her husband missed the signals that a storm threatened: \"Hurricane Jeanne\" tells of their struggle in wild seas to save their boat. A few writings are set elsewhere: Paris, a classroom, a child's room. A friend wrote: \"What stays with me is...that the book is really a love story -- of you and Matt, the island, what grows on it, the community... and the sea.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Grace Hall McEntee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1439232695\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781439232699\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Booksurge Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/22\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 246\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.24w x 0.52d","brand":"Grace Hall McEntee","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48436560167167,"sku":"9781439232699","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_62379964-a915-4270-b959-d7a3972f56d1.jpg?v=1777157022","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tossed-and-shaped-by-the-grace-hall-mcentee-9781439232699","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
