Book Description
"A lucidly described coming-of-age tale" about a young boy and three teenage sisters who have "a mysterious, almost mythic feminine glamour." - Kirkus Reviews In this coming-of-age story set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War, a lonely boy finds acceptance when he spends the summer in a loving family with three beautiful daughters. Twelve-year-old Joey Roland is sent away to family friends while his parents try to work things out. He's eager to leave sadness and secrets behind in Chicago and head downstate to the small town of Greenberry, where the Vitale family awaits him. He thinks of their town as boyland-a world of bike riding, fishing, and going barefoot. Though initially shy of the teenaged daughters-Anne, Vita, and Beth-they welcome him into their lives of adventure, beauty, and dreams. Joey especially bonds with the middle sister, Vita, and her all-or-nothing pursuit of an acting career. Joeys "there must be more" merges with Vita's "I must make it happen" resulting in a magical summer where the town of Greenbury becomes the crucible for two desperate dreamers.
