Unique adventure book about a family working as Alaskan salmon fishermen during summer break. ( ) Sunrise Summer was an enjoyable read from start to finish; however, I wish I had known the character's age since some of the story was a smidge unbelievable for someone that appeared to be so young. For example, she and her mom were eating cold spaghetti on the bluff while rain blew sideways up their noses, and I had a hard time believing a young child would be okay with either of those things (especially after waking up at 2:30 AM). The synopsis says midnight, but that's not true. This book was about family and teamwork (and sometimes chocolate). It was about a girl learning life lessons and taking initiative. It was also about a community coming together and helping one another. I thought the concept for the story was wonderful, and still can't believe that this is what some people actually do during the summer months. It's a lovely idea! Leave your life behind for weeks and spend it fishing and being surrounded by family? Yes, please! The lack of amenities might be annoying, but I'm sure the experiences would more than make up for it. The last four pages of the book - the ones with extra information about the author and illustrator (and their kiddos) - were an awesome addition. I felt like those few pages really added another layer to the overall story, because it showed you that the characters were real people. They were speaking and drawing from experience, and I think that's why this story was so remarkable. I was a little bummed by the fishing at first (and the jellyfish poking), but they did clarify that people needed permits in order to be there, and they talked about the Alaska Department of Fish and Game being very involved throughout the entire process to prevent overfishing. They want to make sure enough fish make it up the river so there will be more the following year. Go biologists! Overall, I really liked Sunrise Summer and enjoyed the illustrations. I thought the pictures complemented the story, and definitely helped bring the author's words to life.
