Customer Reviews
A jolly journey on the Elizabethan ocean!
This is another classic tale, filled with twists and turns. The knowledge of ships and dockyards of the author is casually slipped into the narrative and provides children with a good first glimpse and understand of ship life in the age, and pirate battle, without being too full on or leaving out too much reality. Grace's high spirits and calculative investigative technique will keep you child fascinated!
