Overboard in Lake Ontario - First There Were Four

A teenage boy, having lost his parents and grandparent, finds himself in a foster home run by thieves and smugglers. He has to run away to save himself. His wish is to live at a marina with his uncle. That idea has already gotten a no in the courts. This book is a great teaching tool about the Great Lakes. This is chucked full. from the geography to how to chart a course, the history of wrecks, to the weather and compass headings. Combine this with a tale of a fourteen-year-old homeless boy, a marina fire, drug runners and a few other things like predictive dreams.
