Coming-of-age meets eco-fiction in this novel for teens who can relate to trying to make the right choices while the world burns.
Welcome to Ocean Falls... The problem is, I shouldn't be here. Flora Phillips should be squeezing her way through crowds of wannabe cowboys at the Stampede, not stuck in Ocean Falls with zero friends, zero plumbing, and almost zero cell service. She should be in high school, living a normal life, not bushwhacking up to her front door.
Flora's parents have moved their family to a ghost town in the remote Great Bear Rainforest on the BC coast to start an intentional community. It's the perfect place to go if you want to escape civilization. The problem is, Flora doesn't.
As her friendship grows with a couple of kids from town, Flora starts to think that maybe Ocean Falls isn't all bad. But when her parents get involved with protests against logging the rainforest, the locals grow increasingly suspicious of Flora's anarchist family. Flora must decide for herself what being good--for her family, for the planet, and for herself--really means.
