Out on the Water: Twelve Tales from the Sea

Ten short stories, and two longer historical ones, bring to life the thrills and challenges of sailing, paddling and travelling on the seas around New Zealand. Accompanied by Bruce Potter’s vivid illustrations, these are the work of a world-class children’s writer with an intimate knowledge of the sea. For younger readers who love the sea and lakes, or who simply love adventure, Out on the Water will make a wonderful gift book as a master storyteller weaves sailing facts and knowledge into the fabric of these stories.
