So sad I've finished the trilogy, great book series. ( )

This book is about Hetty Feather (who has changed her name to Emerald Star) who tries to find her father, Bobbie the sailor. Though in Monksby, where Bobbie lives, there are many people - Bob, Bobbie, Robert... - and poor Emerald has no idea which Bobbie her father truly is. The question is: will she find her father or will she suffer alone?

Emerald also sets track for her foster brother, Jem. Her foster father dead, foster mother very ill, can Emerald cope will the sadness staining Jem's house or will she leave and travel somewhere else?

This book was very good, though I appreciate the first Hetty Feather a little more. This book was a little hard for an eight-year-old girl like me, so I read along with the audio book, which seemed to help. The lady reading it out was a little slow, and I think I could have coped with reading the book alone, but as I enjoyed reading along with the audio ringing in my ear, I kept coming back to it and finished the book quicker.
