The Island of Sea Women
by Lisa
See
Mi-ja and Young-sook, two girls living
on the Korean island of Jeju, are best friends who come from very different
backgrounds. When they are old enough, they begin working in the sea with their
village’s all-female diving collective, led by Young-sook’s mother. As the
girls take up their positions as baby divers, they know they are beginning a
life of excitement and responsibility—but also danger.
