Stowaway: New World Adventure took me back to those times when I learned about the first explorers of the New World. The author, Jerry Beller, does a good job of capturing that exciting feeling. As we come to know our main character, Alfred, we recall a time in our own lives where we yearned for adventure. I myself often fantasized about secret passageways to the Pacific. As we follow his bravery, we get to tag along on Alfred's journey. We share his happiness and his disappointments together.Stowaway: New World Adventure has a great amount of historical accuracy. I'm really glad I read this book, and I absolutely consider it suitable for all ages. The crew and their inhumane acts & talks of mutiny were as entertaining as they were appalling, but all in good fun. It's a great read and the ending was a huge bombshell for me - truly the adventure of a lifetime. Highly recommended!
