Annie Lumsden, the girl from the sea /

Almond, David, 1951-

Annie Lumsden, the girl from the sea / David Almond ; illustrated by Beatrice Alemagna. - 58 pages : illustrations ; 22 cm.

Annie has never been like the other girls. Her mam tried sending her to school when she was small, but Annie couldn't seem to make words or numbers stick. She prefers instead to be swimming in the sea, or sunbathing on the shore at Stupor Beach, her head full of tales. She should have been a fish, her mam always tells her, and Annie knows the truth of it. Then a stranger who comes to town is struck by the beauty and the wonder of her, and Annie Lumsden realizes that perhaps she really is half a creature from the sea.
