Summary

After a devastating shipwreck, young Obidian washes ashore on a strange and fragmented island, its pieces scattered across the ocean by ancient earthquakes.
 
With no one else around, he must rely on his instincts and a few salvaged tools to survive. Along the way, he befriends quirky animals—each with their own unique skills—who help him find shelter, food, and hidden water sources. In this gripping adventure, Obidian discovers the importance of courage, adaptability, and the value of forming unexpected friendships.
 
Obidian’s Journey Across the Broken Island is an inspiring tale of resilience and growth in the face of isolation.

    "Out of sight, out of mind." That's what Tallahassee Higgins's mother, Liz, always says about her ex-boyfriends. But now that Tallahassee has been sent to live with her aunt and uncle in Maryland so Liz can start a movie career in California, the words are taking on new meaning. 
 
 
 
Aunt Thelma says that Liz is gone for good, but Talley is sure her mother will come for her. So who cares if mean Aunt Thelma hates her, if she's failing sixth grade, or if the kids at school think she's a liar? It’s not like she's staying in Maryland forever. 
 
 
 
Unless Aunt Thelma is right, and Liz isn't coming back.
