Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
In a charming sequel to Adventures with Waffles , Trille and Lena navigate the rough waters of friendship when a new soccer coach and a new girl in school disrupt their seaside escapades.
Trille and Lena may be getting older, but they still find everyday adventure--and trouble--in their coastal village, including sinking every raft they build, getting little sisters stuck up flag poles, and attending those dreaded music lessons. But that's not all. The arrival of a less-than-encouraging new soccer coach is putting twelve-year-old Lena's goalkeeping career in doubt. And Trille is wondering how to impress the girl who has just joined his class. As the best friends battle the elements and their own emotions, one thing is for sure: they're not giving up, not if Lena has anything to do with it! In Maria Parr's follow-up to Adventures with Waffles , the acclaimed author returns to Mathildewick Cove with a rib-tickling story of growing up.
"Originally published as Keeperen og havet by Det Norsek Samlaget, Oslo"--Title page verso.
In this sequel to Adventures With Waffles, best friends Trille and Lena find their seaside escapades disrupted by a new soccer coach, who puts Lena's goalkeeping dreams on hold, and a new girl on whom Trille has a crush.
Ages 7-10. Candlewick Press.
