Young Man and the Sea

Book cover for Young Man and the Sea

By Rodman Philbrick

OK, Skiff Beaman has problems. His mother died, his fisherman father has slumped into a major depression, the neighborhood bully is stealing the bait in his lobster pots, and the family boat just sank for lack of repair. But Skiff is going to save the boat and raise money for a new engine by catching a giant tuna. Alone. At night. This is a real "page-turner" of a book.
