And these seven buildings are not just quietly pink-they are outrageously PINK. &quotItwas pinker than Kirby's necktie or Bitsy's hair ribbon. It was pink, pink, PINK.&quotItisn't long after the Mellens arrive at the motel that things go even more off kilter with regulars (and some irregulars) taking up residence in the cottages. There's old Miss Ferry who talks to crabs and other beach creatures, Marvello the magician, the two gangsters Locke and Black, and jolly Mr. Carver, who has a knack for uncovering the secrets left by Uncle Hiram.Carol Ryrie Brink's classic children's tale evokes a time of innocence and adventure in the lives of the Mellen children and their friends.

With delightful illustrations by Sheila Greenwald, this story will capture the imagination of children of all ages. This book is also available from Echo Point as a hardcover (ISBN 1648371574).
