The first review - Ocean Without End

I've just got back from Melbourne (I visited my family and attended so many Commonwealth Games events that I need a holiday to recover).
While I was there, Rachel from the Eltham Bookshop sent this through: it's my first official book review, from the Chatterbooks Kids' Bookclub newsletter.
OCEAN WITHOUT END by Kelly Gardiner
Lily, a twelve-year-old girl, was taken by pirates during a raid on her island Santa Lucia. She was taken aboard the ship Gisella and she soon made friends with Cook, Carlo the cabin boy and many others. When the ship Gisella is visited, she finds out that she was working for the man who killed her father. A great read! 10/10. Reviewed by Erik Steller aged 10.

Thanks to Erik - I'm so pleased you liked the book - and to Rachel.
I'll make sure I get to Eltham Bookshop or the Bookclub next time I'm in Melbourne.
