Peter Duck

Peter Duck: A Treasure Hunt in the Caribbees (Godine Storyteller) Peter Duck: A Treasure Hunt in the Caribbees by Arthur Ransome


My review


rating: 5 of 5 stars
I love Arthur Ransome, and this book lives up to my hopes and expectations. This one is a cliff hanger. The Swallow and Amazon children go sailing in the ocean with Captain Flint, Peter Duck, an old sailor, and a boy--they get chased by pirates--real pirates in a search for buried treasure. It's a page-turner for sure. Lots of fun, excitement and danger.(Looking for a good book for a child? Start with Swallows and Amazons.)
