Dappled Annie and the Tigrish
Author(s): Mary McCallum
There are faces in the hedge at the end of the garden, and a nest of tiny fantails, and that's where 9 year-old Annie goes to play one hot summer while her father works up at the lighthouse. One after another, an earthquake and a terrible wind leave Annie with losses that seem irreplaceable, and her little brother Robbie emerges as the only person who can help her find what she's lost. Him and the tigrish.
