Adventure
Plot:
When
Buddy Stebbins stumbles onto the
13th floor,he finds himself on a
pirate ship. The pirate ship
turned out to be his ancestor
from three hundred years ago!!!
Buddy had come aboard looking
for his sister who wasn't there.
Soon Buddy and "Captain
Crackstone", or Captain
Stebbins, are cut adrift. When
they finaly make it to New
England,they find Abigail, who
is ten,and Liz, Buddy's sister.
Abigail is being accused of
witchcraft and could be hanged.
Buddy and Liz go to court with
her to help prove her innocent.
Meanwhile Buddy and Liz are also
trying to get back to present
day, and find the map to captain
Stebbin's treasure.
good:
It was very entertaining. The
charecters were almost real, and
very visual. The setting is so
unique because it is 300 years
back in time, but it is a ghost
story. It is almost like the
ghosts are actually living
people.
weaknesses:
This book is kind of short. The
ending disappointed me a little.
But over all it was a good book!
