Description: Two English boys, David and Adam, spend the summer canoeing on the River Say and, with just an old riddle for a clue, try to find a treasure hidden along its banks by one of Adam's ancestors. This is a wonderful book to read aloud to kids aged 8 to 14. The story is suspenseful, the characters interesting, the boating enough to make any kid want to get out in a canoe.
