Description
The third book in the series (although they can be read as stand-alone books), this is another thought-provoking Ransome inspired tale with a strong appeal to adventure-loving readers in a nine to ninety-nine age bracket. Underlying its clear environmental theme is the conclusion that freedom and responsibility go hand in hand.
When a Tasmanian sailing family anchors near an old wrecked hulk in New Zealand’s Marlborough Sounds, the kids discover a strangely abandoned campsite, with plates of uneaten food and young children’s toys still visible under the mould and cockroaches. Their curiosity leads to an investigation which adds a layer of intrigue to their anticipated fun-filled experiences in an unfamiliar foreign land.
