Author: Kate Merlin
Publisher: Chocolate River Publishing
Young Nate has just left school and found work on the New York, a steamship bound from Saint John to Boston. At first, he delights in his newfound freedom from school, but the work is harder than he expected. When the ship gets caught in the Saxby Gale of 1869, Nate has to draw on his courage to help keep the ship and its passengers safe. When they lose their anchor and then their rudder, he worries that he will never see his family again. Based on a real incident, this adventure story should appeal to ages 9-12 even though it is written at a grade 2-3 reading level.

The books are written at the grade 2-3 level and are short enough that students are able to finish them before they get discouraged. This boosts their confidence and gives them a positive reading experience that helps to scaffold them up to a longer and more complex book.
