Review:

Adventures in Odyssey fans will love this additional series that focuses on the Imagination Station!

Captured on the High Seas is an easy book for readers just learning how to pick up “chapter books” and has a captivating story that will hold anyone’s attention. It’s stocked full of history facts that will interest those history lovers, as well as prayers and faith conversations. There are some vocabulary words explained and defined as well, which makes it a great home-school resource.

The story itself is clean; no cursing at all, sexual content, nor is the action graphic. It’s perfect for readers who are aged 8-13 years old.

It comes highly recommended and with 5 out of 5 stars!
