Description

By the writer of A Wrinkle in Time, the conclusion to the Polly O’Keefe stories finds Polly taking an unforgettable travel to Europe, all by herself.

“Exquisite.” ―Publishers Weekly

Sixteen-year-old Polly is on her way to the island of Cyprus, where she will work as a gofer. The travel was once arranged by Maximiliana Horne, a rich, brilliant artist who, with her longtime companion, Dr. Ursula Heschel, recently became the O’Keefe Circle of relatives’s neighbor on Benne Seed Island. Max and Polly formed an instant friendship and Max took over Polly’s education, giving her the encouragement and confidence that her isolated upbringing had not. Polly adored Max, even idolized her, until Max betrayed her. In Greece, Polly finds romance, danger, and unique friendships. But can she ever forgive Max?

Praise for A House Like a Lotus:

“Even as on a working travel to Greece and Cyprus, in the past arranged by Max, Polly learns what forgiveness and love actually are. Polly is a remarkable heroine.” ―Children’s Book Review Service

“Compelling . . . An eminently caring book by an obviously caring creator.” ―Booklist, starred review

“Exquisite.” ―Publishers Weekly
