Book
Shipwreck / Maureen Jennings.
In the winter of 1873, a stormy sea throws a ship onto the rocks on the shore of a Nova Scotia fishing village. The villagers work bravely to save the ship's crew but many die. Young Will Murdoch and the local priest discover gold and diamonds. They suspect that the shipwreck wasn't responsible for all the deaths. With the priest's help, Will - who grows up to be a famous detective - solves his first mystery.
"It was a fun read. I use it to relate in my life. It takes all kinds of crazies to make the world go around." – April 2011 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.
