About this listen

 Through the alternating voices of 12-year-old Morning Girl and her younger brother Star Boy, we step into the extraordinarily rich lives of an indigenous family on a Bahamian Island in 1492, just as their paradise is about to be discovered and a new world order begins to take shape.

Beautifully painted in words by Michael Dorris, and performed with great sensitivity by sister/brother voices Eliza and Reilly Duggan, this exceptional recording will find its place in the hearts of listeners of all ages.

The book was nice to listen to but the storyline was a bit unclear. It was just nice to hear about island life

Nice book
