Four young men in a tiny lifeboat brave a dreadful storm to save dozens of lives in this illustrated chapter book adaptation of the New York Times bestseller The Finest Hours.
On the night of February 18th, 1952, during one of the worst winter storms that New England has even seen, two oil tankers off the shore of Cape Cod are torn in half by the force of the seas. For the men on board, survival seemed impossible. What follows is a harrowing Coast Guard rescue in a tiny lifeboat, where four young heroes beat the odds and bring more than thirty stranded sailors to safety.
The True Rescue chapter book series is full of fast-paced, uplifting stories that put newly independent readers in the middle of the action. Don't miss another pulse-pounding book in the series: A Storm Too Soon (Chapter Book edition).
