The Sea Flower

The Sea Flower

Ruth Moore
4/5 ( ratings)
In The Sea Flower, Ruth Moore gives a fresh twist to a classic situation. Two youngsters, Marney and Liz are cast away on an almost deserted island off the coast of Maine in the United States, having been blown ashore in a luxury motor-boat "The Sea Flower". Neither Marney, a shy 16-year-old, nor Liz, aged 11 and a one-girl army defending herself against a hard world, has any right aboard "The Sea Flower". It is their good fortune to find on the island, someone who cares little about rights but a great deal about two frightened, lonely youngsters. Fat and sixtyish, but happy to put himself out to do the right thing however much his feet hurt, Arvid Small is that rare and precious creature, a man of genuine good will. The resultant story of the two youngsters and their stout friend is packed with excitement, colour, and humour. It has, too, all the vitality and depth that only an accomplished storyteller can bestow.
