The Eyes of the Amaryllis

I wish I had a copy of this book right now.  One of my teachers read it to us I beleive in middle school.

From Publishers Weekly~

“The ship Amaryllis sinks in a hurricane, but for 30 years the captain’s widow waits for him to send her a message from the bottom of the sea. Her granddaughter waits with her, and “the author reminds us that the line between reality and imagination is undefinable. Babbitt rings the bell again,” PW said.

All I remember is the discriptive inturpritation of a hurricane through a childs eyes.  I’m gonna have to look it up to compare it to my experience.
