Table of ContentsReviews"""Moments of madcap humor and familial warmth characterize this emotionally generous summer tale from Melleby, which showcases the author's command of fully realized characterization and distinct relationship dynamics."" -Publishers Weekly (The House on Sunrise Lagoon: Sam Makes a Splash) ""Layered family dynamics run through the heart of this character-driven story in which the love and devotion shared are as sure as the tides... An enjoyable and heartwarming read."" -Kirkus Reviews (The House on Sunrise Lagoon: Sam Makes a Splash) ""The Ali-O'Connors are an appealing bunch, each with their own quirks and foibles. The rivalry between Sam (who is adopted) and slightly older sister Harbor (Mom's biological child) is both believable and heart-wrenching at times; Marina (also adopted) is book-loving and reserved; and younger twins Cordelia and Lir (Mama's biological children) add humorous, relatable moments to the story. Perhaps most heartwarming is the tentative alliance that develops between Sam and Harbor as they team up to help Mom."" -Booklist (The House on Sunrise Lagoon: Sam Makes a Splash) ""This second series installment focuses on symptoms of severe anxiety emerging within a loving support network. Readers will appreciate the boisterous family dynamics and thoughtful treatment of mental health concerns. Entertaining and satisfying."" -Kirkus Reviews (The House on Sunrise Lagoon: Marina in the Middle)" Author InformationNicole Melleby, a New Jersey native, is the author of highly praised middle-grade books, including the Lambda Literary finalist Hurricane Season, ALA Notable book How to Become a Planet, Camp QUILTBAG (co-written with A.
