Why read it?
1 author picked The Girl Who Rowed the Ocean as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
My son loved The Girl Who Rowed the Ocean, a gripping read that had him begging for “one more chapter” every single bedtime.
Based on the author’s own experiences, it’ll inspire you to think about planning your own family adventures! Lucy is a great female hero, and we learnt a lot about life on and in the ocean, from shooting stars to bioluminescence, sea turtles to dolphins and whales, and storm petrels to storms. Also, we bought discounted copies directly from the author for every classmates’ birthday… they all loved it too!
