Synopsis:

Mafatu’s name means “Stout Heart,” but his people call him a coward. Ever since the sea took his mother’s life and spared his own, he has lived with deep fear. And even though his father is the Great Chief of Hikueru–an island whose seafaring people worship courage–he is terrified, and consequently, he is severely scorned.

By the time he is twelve years old, Mafatu can bear it no longer. He must conquer his fear alone…even if it means certain death.

About the Author: Armstrong Sperry (1897—1976) is the author of many books for young readers including Newbery Honor winner All Sail Set: A Romance of the Flying Cloud, Lost Lagoon, and Wagons Westward: The Story of the Old Trail to Santa Fe.
