SYNOPSIS:
Through the alternating voices of 12 year old Morning Girl and
her younger brother Star Boy, we step into the extraordinary rich lives of an
indigenous family on a Bahamian Island in 1492 - just as their paradise is about
to be discovered and a new world order begins to take shape. This exceptional
recording will find its place in the hearts of listeners of all ages!
