Description

This is it, the big time. Mikey is 13, a deckhand working on a charter boat in Hawaii. Working for the best skipper anywhere, his stepdad, Bill. Before Bill came along, it was just Mikey & his mom. Today they’re a real family, & Mikey has a little brother. He can’t believe how lucky he is. Now he’s the youngest deckhand in the harbor, because Bill believes in him. Mikey won’t let him down. But some seas, some fish, some clients are a lot tougher to handle than Mikey ever imagined. Take Ernie & Cal -- they’ve chartered Bill’s boat for 3 days, & they’re out for the adventure of their lives. It’s up to Mikey & Bill to give it to them. “A brilliant, dramatic story that explores the meaning of taking chances . . . espec. with the truth.” Winner, Boston Globe Horn Book Award.
