Thirteen-year-old
Sophie hears the sea calling, promising adventure and a chance for
discovery as she sets sail for England with her three uncles and
two cousins. Sophie’s cousin Cody isn’t sure he has the strength to
prove himself to the crew and to his father. Through Sophie’s and
Cody’s travel logs, we hear stories of the past and the daily
challenges of surviving at sea as The Wanderer sails toward its destination—and its passengers
search for their places in the
world.
