Mary Beth Owens was inspired by heradmiration and concern for these critically endangered animals to write andillustrate this beautiful book. The narrator-a craggy, ancient jumby tree thatstands sentinel over the bay-observes a hawksbill's arrival by night, herarduous trek to excavate a nest and bury her eggs, her solitary return to thesea, and the later diaspora of her hatchlings. Spare prose complements pagessaturated with Caribbean color or brooding in ghostly moonlight.
