Adam is an adventurous young boy yearning to learn the art of sailing. He lives in a city, so when his aunt and uncle extend an invitation for him to visit one summer, he eagerly seizes the opportunity. Adam’s cousin Beth takes him on an unforgettable first sailing adventure to Dutch Ship Island.
While sailing across the waves with Adam and Beth, readers will learn
- basic nautical terms to points of sailing,
- channel markers and buoys,
- proper safety equipment,
- essential knots and bends, and
- insights into clouds and weather patterns.
Tailored for the middle grades, ages 7–10, First Sail uses engaging storytelling and meticulously labeled drawings so young readers will absorb a wealth of information.
