This is a very good story set back in 1935 with a young girl whose mother is a housekeeper in Georgia. The mother takes a job where they won't let kids stay so her mother sends Turtle to live with her aunt and cousins in the Key West. It is a vast difference from what she is accustomed to. The food, style of dress, talk and everything is so strange. She has to get used to living with four boy cousins . They share a room. Turtle has many adventures during her summer. She meets her grandmother and spends time with her. She goes on a treasure hunt and finds treasures. This was and awesome story.
