Noticing Paradise

by Ellen Wittlinger

Noah: "There I was in the middle of nowhere. Just me, my brother Henry, and two hundred international tourists looking stupid in a dozen different languages." Cat: "Then two more people came to the table, the two boys I noticed at the airport. They were handsome, but they obviously knew it." In alternating chapters, sixteen-year-olds Cat and Noah give their very different versions of what happens when they find themselves thrown together as reluctant passengers on a cruise in the legendary Galapagos Islands.
