Oliver's Surprise - Carol Newman Cronin - Bog

Longing to feel closer to his favorite grandfather, Oliver skips school and hides out on a retired schooner that transports him back to 1938--just before the Great Hurricane he'd been studying in school. This charming story includes eight original illustrations, a glossary of nautical terms, and a short history of the Great Hurricane of 1938 that devastated the eastern seaboard.
