博客來Eleven-year-old Grace Arrow is obsessed with all things aquatic, especially dolphins. She lives in the small town of Bagdad, Florida with Gigi, her definitely not-wealthy, overstrict, and sometimes unstable great-grandmother.
Grace stays afloat by escaping to her imaginary world of Aquamarina Girl, a superhero who rescues wildlife and fuels Grace’s dream of one day swimming with dolphins. With her BFF Abby, Grace has summer plans to earn money for a dolphin encounter at the nearby marine park. But when Abby moves to the desert and Gigi has a mental health breakdown, Grace’s dolphin dream sinks.
Foster care places Grace with Mike, her long-lost dad-a crab fisherman she’s never met who lives 150 miles away on a boat at a marina. Grace enjoys being so close to the aquatic world she loves, but her new home means learning to give family and community another chance.
As she struggles to find an anchor with Mike, she befriends marina manager Sandy and her dolphin dream resurfaces. But an unexpected betrayal throws her into a whirlpool of confusion, and Grace must decide how she will live her dream of swimming with dolphins-and how to find trust in family again.
