This adventure novel about survival at sea by Newbery Honor author Gary Paulsen is now available in an After Words paperback edition!

David thought he was alone, that the ocean around him was all there was of the world. The wind screamed, the waves towered, and his boat, the twenty-two foot fiberglass FROG, skidded and bucked and, each moment, filled deeper and grew heavier with sea water.
David thought surely he was dead at fourteen. His uncle Owen, who had taught him about sailing safely, would be so angry. Owen had died only days ago, his last wish for David to take the FROG out on his own, and sail her beyond sight of the coast, and once there scatter Owen's ashes.

Product description

From the Publisher

Slowly, David opened his eyes and looked around the horizon, wincing again with the new movement. There was nothing sticking above the water as far as he could see.

He was alone.

Fourteen-year-old David Alspeth intended only to fulfill his uncle's last wish when he set sail in the Frog, but when a savage storm slams into the tiny sailboat, David is stranded. No wind. No radio. Little water. Seven cans of food. And the storm is just the first challenge David must face... --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

It is a good story that I enjoyed reading. Slightly unbelievable in a couple of places, but fun to read.

One of my Favorite Books Ever

Reviewed in the United States on 4 February 2012

Verified Purchase

Many years ago I decided to find books that would work well for a 6th grade science class book club. I ran across this title and ordered it because I had read another book by the same author and liked it. What a wonderful surprise! This book is exactly what I was looking for in a book for my classes. I used it the first year on my list of books, but realized that it hadn't been published in a long time. Many of my students had a hard time finding the title in the library or in a store, so I reluctantly took it off of the list . I decided after that to read it aloud to my students instead.

It is well-written, as most of Gary Paulsen's book tend to be. It contains many aspects of a great story for middle school students including an internal struggle in dealing with the death of a family member. There is also the struggle between the main character and his parents when he tries to strike out on his own to follow the wishes of his uncle. Lastly, there is the struggle he has with nature to survive which is the reason I like this book for an Earth Science classroom. This book is perfect for a middle school student to enjoy!

I teach High School English to low level readers. The story was very high interest for these boy, and the readability was not too challenging. They were interested throughout. The ending elicits great discussion. Well done Paulson.

If you liked Hatchet you will like this.

This is typical writing from Gary Paulsen: an exciting struggle between a young boy and the forces of nature. Think of Hatchet but at sea. Recommended.
