The Voyage of the Frog (Scholastic Gold)

Newbery Honor author Gary Paulsen's Voyage of the Frog joins the Scholastic Gold line, with bonus content!

Fourteen-year-old David was only trying to fulfill his uncle's last wish when he set sail on the Frog. He wasn't ready for the way the world seems to disappear out on the ocean, and he certainly wasn't expecting the violent storm that nearly took his life. David quickly learns that surviving on the sea is different from anything he knows on land. The waves can be merciless, the storms unpitying, and the creatures that lurk beneath the surface dangerous.

With only a small ration of food and a deadly calm following the brutal storm, David must find his way back to land . . . if he can endure the other challenges the water holds.
