Also, it’s instructive without being pedantic. It goes into details about where to find perch, lots of details about sailing, including parts of the ship and how to tack, etc. Good stuff thatchildren could follow. It also sets a good example of the parents letting them have some freedom, but monitoring them without being overbearing and restrictive.

One thing I’ve noticed about this book so far is that it gives equal time, or at least more-equal time, to the younglings. There are four children, and often in these books it seems that the older ones get the most attention, or it’s written from the older one’s perspective. This one seems to switch the focus to the perspective of each of the children, which is nice.
