The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle BSY114

US$12.95

A Newbery Honor book -  On a long, grueling journey from England to Rhode Island in 1802, a 12 year old changes from a prim and proper girl to a swashbuckling mate of a mutinous crew and is accused of murder by the captain. Awash with shipboard activity, intense feelings, and a keen sense of time and place, the story is a throwback to good old-fashioned adventure yarns on the high seas. Ages 9 and up.

本书荣获1991年纽伯瑞儿童文学奖银奖。1832年夏,当来自上层社会的十三岁少女陶雪洛独自登上驶往美国的海鹰号时,还不知道等待她的将是那惊心动魄的横跨大西洋之旅。航行途中,水手们一直在暗中谋划叛变。起初,陶雪洛站在尊贵优雅的谢克利船长一边,但渐渐地,在她了解到他残忍的本性后,便毅然加入到水手们的行列。很快,她被卷入了一场离奇的谋杀案,受到审判,并且被宣判死刑,但她凭着自己的勇敢与睿智,逃过劫难。最后,当海鹰号抵达目的地时,她已成为统率全体船员的一船之长。然而,当她历尽千辛万苦终于回到父母身边时,却发现自己已与原来熟悉的世界格格不入了。她将何去何从?
