Synopsis

Set in a small island town on the Texas coastal bend, CeeGee's Gift takes readers to a simpler time, when neighbors sat on front porches, kids took off on bikes all day, and the library was the gathering place for all ages. Twelve-year-old Celia Gene Williamson and her friend, old Mr. Tindale, work together to transform her ability to foretell the future into a gift for others--a chance for the people of Southport to prepare for what is to come, or even change their direction and change the future.
