The Boy Who Sailed the World by Julia Green 5-7 Book Unit

VIEW IN EDSHED

A little boy who loves the sea, builds a boat and goes on an adventure. When evening falls, he loses his way, but doesn’t give up: the compass will show him where to go. When a storm hits the boat, the little boy holds on and mends his sail.

At night, he studies the patterns of the stars
like the sailors in the old stories he used to
love listening to. On and on he sails until, one day, he finds an island where he sleeps on the beach, under millions of stars, and cooks his food on a driftwood fire. Finally, home starts to call him back, and he returns to his mother – until the next adventure.
