It shows how beautiful the ocean is and stresses how important it is to protect it for future generations. This is how the story starts: Barbie was a little girl who lived in Seashell Cove, a pretty beach town. She liked how time seemed to go by slowly there. Her hair was golden and sparkled like a river of sunshine. Her eyes were as blue as the ocean. She was the picture of beauty. Barbie was the breathtaking beauty of Seashell Cove, a place where simple joys of life lived together with the grandeur of nature. Barbie's true love and the thing that kept her alive came from the water. As long as she could remember, the beautiful waves had been with her all the time, and their steady beat had made her feel better. Barbie loved the sea more than toys and games, even though other kids would have been happy with those things. She was interested in the secrets that lay below the surface and found comfort in the sky that seemed to go on forever. Every morning, as the sun came up over the seaside town, Barbie would walk down to the beach. She would go on her daily search for seashells with a box that she had made herself. She saw these fragile gems as more than just seashells; she knew they had stories for her to find. Barbie was amazed by the shells' complicated patterns and wide range of colors. Each one told a story of a faraway trip. Barbie's trips to the beach didn't end with gathering shells. She was also very good at building dreams, and she used golden sand grains as building blocks. She painted on the sand and made amazing castles with towers that looked like they reached the sky with each stroke of her brush. As Barbie worked on her masterpieces, she could feel the beauty of the water in every grain of sand. This showed how creative she was. The people of Seashell Cove were amazed by Barbie's artistic skills, but it was also her unshakable love of the sea. Barbie would spend her afternoons sitting on a worn-out piece of driftwood and looking out at the waves that were moving in the sun. She watched as their foamy fingers touched the shore, making it swell and break. Barbie saw more than just beauty in the waves. She thought they showed how life goes up and down. She thought of them as a sign that things are always changing and that even when things are bad, there is beauty. The sound of the waves hitting the shore was like a natural symphony. It was a sea music that spoke to her deeply. As the days turned into weeks and weeks into months, Barbie's love for the ocean grew. She learned how to read the waves and guess how the sea would feel. She found secret coves and pools full of colorful fish darting in and out of coral gardens and seahorses dancing under seaweed that was waving. She went underwater to hide. There, she could swim with her friends and enjoy the beautiful colors and beauty of the ocean. But even with all of these wonderful things, Barbie still had one wish that she couldn't grant. The older people in Seashell Cove had taught her in whispers about the magical beings that lived in the ocean's deepest parts. What they said was that they had seen mermaids with beautiful tails that sparkled like moonlight on water. Barbie had always wished she could meet a real mermaid, but she never quite got the chance. She had no idea that her life was about to take a crazy turn and that she would meet a mermaid, which was her dream. In Seashell Cove, where the green waters meet the rough rocks, Barbie was about to have a miracle that would change her life.

Playing in the Light


Book Description

By the Windham Campbell Prize winner Set in a beautifully rendered 1990s Cape Town, Zo Wicomb's celebrated novel revolves around Marion Campbell, who runs a travel agency but hates traveling, and who, in post-apartheid society, must negotiate the complexities of a knotty relationship with Brenda, her first black employee. As Alison McCulloch noted in the New York Times, "Wicomb deftly explores the ghastly soup of racism in all its unglory--denial, tradition, habit, stupidity, fear--and manages to do so without moralizing or becoming formulaic." Caught in the narrow world of private interests and self-advancement, Marion eschews national politics until the Truth and Reconciliation Commission throws up information that brings into question not only her family's past but her identity and her rightful place in contemporary South African society. "Stylistically nuanced and psychologically astute" (Kirkus), Playing in the Light is as powerful in its depiction of Marion's personal journey as it is in its depiction of South Africa's bizarre, brutal history.
