Requirements: ePub Reader 0.5 MB
Overview: Journey to the River Sea, Eva Ibbotson’s tale of an orphaned London schoolgirl and her formidable governess’s journey to South America will touch the hearts of generations of children. Thanks to a thrilling story-line, a cast of richly drawn characters, and a voyage through the emotions of childhood, it is destined to join the A-list of children’s classics, perennial stories undiminished by the passage of time and the changing world in which children grow up.
Set at the turn of the 20th century, this is an adventure story full of magic and discovery–without a witch or a wizard in sight! It’s about real people, good and bad, and a journey to another world. Maia, accompanied by the straight-backed Miss Minton, leaves the familiar comforts of her boarding school to start a new life with distant relatives who live 1000 miles from the mouth of the Amazon. Both soon discover an exotic world bursting with new experiences beyond their imagination. More importantly, they learn one of life’s hardest lessons–to conquer their fears and embrace the unknown. And along the way they learn about tolerance, acceptance and trust.
