(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Geoff Butler. When the Despatch runs aground off the coast of Newfoundland, Anne, her brother, their father, and their dog race to the rescue. The storm prevents their boat from getting near the ship, but the Newfoundland dog saves the day. Based on a true 1832 event, the story has appeal, but the dark, impressionistic paintings vary widely in effectiveness.
