Accidentally requested this a year earlier than we'll be reading it for the Newbery Club. Happy accident, though, as Red Sails to Capri hate to have missed it it may get culled in the meantime, as so many older Newbery Honor books do get weeded by libraries. So engaging I read it one sitting. If you don't want a spoiler to the mystery, don't google Capri or remember what you know about it until after reading. Weil captured what we think of when we think of traditional life on a Mediterranean island p Accidentally requested this a year earlier than we'll be reading it for the Newbery Club. Weil captured what we think of when we think of traditional life on a Mediterranean island perfectly. Every character is drawn quickly but richly. Every person, every place, feels just right, as if the reader could just step into the book and be there with them. I do highly recommend it and have no idea why it's not more popular unless American children can't accept the name Michele on a boy. But your Red Sails to Capri steps--if I have made you see a bit of beauty in Red Sails to Capri, Michele, I am very happy. Nov 25, Laura rated it it was amazing.

Michele, a boy from Capri, spies the most beautiful red-sailed boat he has ever seen. The boat arrives in Red Sails to Capri harbor with three strangers- guests for Michele's family's inn. Mama cooks and cleans for the guests but they are in search of something special: one is searching for beauty, one for adventure and one for the truth through knowledge. It is the curiosity of the adventuring Frenchman and the philosophy of the Danish man that leads to an adventure beyond Michele's wildest dreams. This is a Michele, a boy from Capri, spies the most beautiful red-sailed boat he has ever seen. This is a pretty simple story set in when Capri was a wild, rocky mountain with only enough tourists to fill one inn to the max. The island is a character in the novel. The descriptions are quite lovely, especially the surprise they find at the end of the adventure. The plot kept me interested enough to keep reading in one sitting but I didn't find anything special about the writing. Would I have chosen this as a Newbery Honor book? I don't think so. Michele is immature for He acts more like a younger boy of though Red Sails to Capri does make a mature decision early in the book. I loved his Mamma who reminded me of my Nonnie, whose duty it was to make sure no one ever ran out of food! I loved Mamma's singing to her food and I'm going to try her macaroni Red Sails to Capri I liked her sarcastic comments-SO Neapolitan. The three guests are spoiled and think nothing of tossing money around without a care to the consequences. They want adventure without thinking of how it will affect Michele's family. Angelo is a fun character. I'm not sure I like him but he adds to the local color. The ! Feb 26, Wendy rated it liked it Shelves: newbery-honor. Slight and and pleasing, told almost entirely in dialogue. Ann Weil accomplished something unusual--her characters speak with the rhythm of Italian, but it doesn't come across as broken English. The mother is especially delightful: "His mother lived with the constant fear that everyone around her was going to starve to death, and her whole life was spent in trying to avoid that great tragedy. These ARE the peop Slight and and pleasing, told almost entirely in dialogue. These ARE the people I knew on Elba although they would object strongly to the idea that they were anything like the natives of Capri. Jan 27, Suzanne Simpson rated it really liked it. The children and I enjoyed this book. Even my husband hovered in the kitchen once to hear what would happen during what I shall call "The egg chapter". It was a lovely story :. View 1 comment.
