Discovering the Sea is the story of Fern, a sixteen-year-old girl, who is home for the summer after completing her first year of boarding school, and intent on exploring the concept of the Covenant of God. Through discussions with friends and family members, Fern learns about the Bahá’í concept of the Covenant as an agreement between God and mankind in which God promises never to leave us alone without guidance. Fern discusses the religions of the past, and the ways in which disunity seemed to arise among their followers after the passing of the Prophets and Founders of the religions. With the help of her family members and friends, Fern studies the wills of Bahá’u’lláh, the Prophet and Founder of the Bahá’í Faith, and ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, the eldest son and appointed successor of Bahá’u’lláh, and comes to appreciate the unique and significant Covenant made between Bahá’u’lláh and His followers.

Spirit Within Club

By Sahar Sabati

When ten-year-old friends set up an after-school club so they can hang out together more often, they don't expect to be able to solve their problems at school. But when they tap into the spirit within them, they and their friends discover that they have the power to make the world a better place.

Fern has grown up on the remote Orkney Islands of northern Scotland, and is preparing to leave home for the first time to attend boarding school. Faced with the prospect of being away from the familiarity of her loving family, she is apprehensive about what lies ahead. As a member of the Bahá’í Faith who recently turned fifteen, Fern is also preparing to take part in her first nineteen-day Bahá’í Fast.

Concerned, at first, that she will be an outsider because of her Faith, Fern soon makes friends with a number of classmates and discovers that she is not the only one who comes from a slightly different background.

Wave Watcher is a story about what it means to be an everyday hero, and what it means to be human. Twelve-year old Ray can't sleep. His thoughts keep him awake--especially tonight, exactly one year after the terrible devastating event that changed his life forever. The gifted young writer's pen has been silent since then, stilled by shock. Tonight Ray will break the silence. He will begin to write again. In looking back on his life, he will come to see how a broken-down house, a brother with only one lung, his father's novel, a whisper in a cave, and a man-eating Chihuahua all play a part in the patterns in his life.
