The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle

by Avi
PRMS paperback 221 pages
genre: YA historical fiction, adventure

Spoiler alert!

It has been a long time since I read this and I wanted to see if it would work for book clubs. I still love this story - the adventure, the changes in Charlotte's perspective, the characters . . .

I had forgotten the ending. Her dad's fierce rejection of her experiences and perspective. Her decision to run away and re-join the ship's crew. I think it's a good choice for book club. It's a very accessible book.
