But this year Becca's mother is expecting a baby, and Becca visits her grandmother on her own. The prospect of spending time at Gran's -- with her peculiar plumbing and ridiculous Scrabble rules -- is hardly appealing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThen, on her very first night, Becca finds an oyster full of pearls. One pearl for every adventure to come?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs her mother's pregnancy progresses, Becca returns to the island again and again. And through a busy parade of visiting relatives -- some welcome, some not -- she faces the cacophony of the annual herring run in a leaky dinghy, is kissed by a seal, scales a cliff, sails a boat for the first time and goes skinny-dipping in a sea of luminescence. And by the time her parents arrive with the new baby, she realizes that adventures, and even friends to share them with, may have been right under her nose the whole time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCorrelates to the Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.2.6\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledge differences in the points of view of characters, including by speaking in a different voice for each character when reading dialogue aloud.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.4.3\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Describe in depth a character, setting, or event in a story or drama, drawing on specific details in the text (e.g., a character's thoughts, words, or actions).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.5.3\u003cbr\u003eCompare and contrast two or more characters, settings, or events in a story or drama, drawing on specific details in the text (e.g., how characters interact).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 168\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 7.4 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 01, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuiz Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Becca at Sea\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Middle Grades, 4-8\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.4\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\u003c\/div\u003e\n                ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51765369274656,"sku":"9780888997388","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/0174b4e00704e9894f6481203d994306.webp?v=1780267419","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/becca-at-sea-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
