Book excerpt: This is the story of "Tuck," traveling by ferry with his mother to Nantucket Island where he was born. They will spend the summer with his Gram there while Mom writes a book. Tuck doesn't remember the island at all, but people have told him that he'll love it because "there's something so special about Nantucket." As he visits famous scenic, & historic island sites with his Gram he keeps wondering if THIS or THAT is the special thing. Is it the peppermint-striped lighthouse? Is it bubble-blowing at sunset at Steps Beach? Is it band concerts with balloons & tubas & dancing kids & ice cream cones? Tuck scarcely realizes that he's learning a lot about the history & environment of Nantucket as he enjoys day after day of exploring with Gram & her dog Emma. But finally he discovers the answer to the big question: it's not only boats & lighthouses, flowers & birds & cobblestones & scallops that make the island special--it's seeing your Dad arriving on the ferry as it rounds Brant Point & suddenly knowing that the most special thing of all is sharing the Nantucket Island with the people you love.
