Description

When Marinka, Podgy Plum and Timid Thomas set sail with the Little Captain on board his brave ship the Neversink, a world of adventures awaits. Their incredible journey will take them across stormy seas and scorching sand dunes, through palaces and sailors’ inns, past giants, dragons and polar bears. Along the way there will be danger and excitement, ghost ships and buried treasure, pancakes galore, and at the end of it all: friendship.

Packed with thrills, laughter and magic, this beautifully illustrated classic seafaring tale has enchanted generations of children.

Fantastic' - Jeugdboekengids
