Active 9-year-old Dee-Dee and her daredevil little sister live on the edge of the Broads, a 117 square mile English national park with over 120 miles of shallow, navigable waterways, so it would be a crime not to teach them to sail as soon as possible. The Optimist, a small, simple boat designed to be sailed single-handed by children, is the boat they learn to handle. Grandpa Mike's maverick approach ensures that they have plenty of fun at the same time as getting a thorough grounding in seamanship and water safety as part of their training. Written for bright and lively 9-12 year olds, this book will teach and entertain plenty of adults, too.
