"The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle" By Avi
Title: The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle
Author: Avi
Published Year: 1990
Pages: 229
Awards: Newberry Honor
Description: On a long, grueling journey from England to Rhode Island in 1802, a 12 year old changes from a prim and proper girl to a swashbuckling mate of a mutinous crew and is accused of murder by the captain. Awash with shipboard activity, intense feelings, and a keen sense of time and place, the story is a throwback to good old-fashioned adventure yarns on the high seas.
