Overview

In alternating chapters, Morning Girl, a twelve year old Taino, and her younger brother, Star Boy, vividly recreate life on a Bahamian island in 1492 --- a life that is rich, complex, and soon to be threatened.

The award-winning author of A Yellow Raft in Blue Water presents a tale based on an entry in the diary of Christopher Columbus that tells of a native family living in a vibrant community striving to coexist with the natural world.
