Jinny is an orphan on an island where everything is perfect. The trees provide shade, there's plent of food and some nice cabins. The one rule is that there can only be nine orphans on the island. Each year, a boat comes with a baby and takes away the oldest orphan forever. And when Jinny's best friend Deen leaves, she is the new Elder with responsibilities. But she broke some of the curses and things might never be right again. This is for 6th/7th graders who like reading about friendship and love.
