Sarah is from Maine. Her old house is by the sea, so she loves the sea very much. Her new home is not close to ocean, so her homesickness becomes worse. Even there is a haystack just like the sand dune at her hometown, she always loves the things around her old home. When she returns, she has a picture of sea with her. Sarah is missing her old home very much, but she brings the sea to her new house, so she will not get homesick. It means Sarah will remain, and the children will get their wish, too.
I think moving to a new place with no friend or family is a courageous thing. For example, transferring to a new school is very scary. You don’t know anyone there, and you don’t know if you can make new friends. Maybe I will go to Canada for senior high school. Although I will probably go with my cousins, I will also like to make new friends.
