Résumé

Ten short stories, and two longer historical ones, bring to life the thrills and challenges of sailing, paddling and travelling on the seas around New Zealand. Accompanied by Bruce Potter’s vivid illustrations, these are the work of a world-class children’s writer with an intimate knowledge of the sea. For children who love the sea and lakes, or who simply love adventure.
