I loved so much in this book: the richly imagined setting, the complicated love story, and the heartbreaking way history can tear apart a family.' Ann Napolitano, New York Times bestselling author of Hello BeautifulSet against a changing Singapore, a sweeping novel about one boy's unique gifts and the childhood love that will complicate the fate of his community and countryAh Boon is born into a fishing village amid the heat and beauty of twentieth-century coastal Singapore in the waning years of British rule.He is a gentle boy who is not much interested in fishing, preferring to spend his days playing with the neighbor girl, Siok Mei.But when he discovers he has the unique ability to locate bountiful, movable islands that no one else can find, he feels a new sense of obligation and possibilitysomething to offer the community and impress the spirited girl he has come to love. By the time they are teens, Ah Boon and Siok Mei are caught in the tragic sweep of history: the Japanese army invades, the resistance rises, grief intrudes, and the future of the fishing village is in jeopardy.
