Island Birthday

In ISLAND BIRTHDAY Riley’s special day is coming, but the mail plane with his gifts from the mainland hasn’t been able to get to the island for days because of bad weather. In a mood that matches the weather, he agrees to help Uncle Harv collect driftwood to make furniture. One thing leads to another as it always does on a small island, and eventually Riley realizes that everything he needs for a great birthday is already right at hand, and an island birthday is special in many ways.

 

Life on a remote Maine island can be frustrating for a typical kid who misses the conveniences that mainland residents take for granted.
