The Red Bottle
Within the pages of The Red Bottle we find an adventure-filled story of a young red head girl named Rosie, along with her family, and their quest to unlock the secrets of a rare, red sea glass seal she found while taking a stroll on a beach.
Rosie and her brother prove to be able detectives, uncovering clues whether from books or online websites, skills that all sea glass collectors can appreciate.
Their exploits are peppered with jokes, provided mostly by Rosie's brother, along with informative insights into the hobby of sea glass collecting, revealing author Phil Brill's inner child and love of the ocean.
Author Phil Brill reads his book to a gathering of beachgoers in Montauk.
While the book contains over 200 pages the text is fairly large and easy to read, and includes wonderful ink-washed illustrations by Simon Dupuis.
The end result is a fun-filled and enjoyable read for the young sea glass enthusiast.
The book is not sold online but can be found at the New Bedford Glass Museum, New Bedford, MA; Montauk Bookshop, Montauk,NY; Book Revue, Huntington, NY; and Inquiring Mind, Saugerties,NY.
