This is a heck of a good read. SECRET IN THE SAND would make a terrific Disney movie. I hope there really was a Rose Cottage somewhere. I love Rose Cottage and want to live there. Love the dogs! Great names! I always wondered what it would have been like to live at the beach during the war and before it all got built up. Now I feel like I know what it was like here in Bethany back in the day. This is not just a book for kids. It's a book grownups will love, too. The story of the German U-boats and the destruction they brought to the Mid-Atlantic coast of the United States is an underreported part of history. SECRET IN THE SAND really makes that time come alive. I'm really glad to read a book about Delaware. Lots of people don't even know Delaware is a state. I know the author is not the right age to have lived this story, but when I read SECRET IN THE SAND, I felt it was autobiographical. It was so real. How great that you put in so much history. Kids don't get enough exposure to history these days.
