Reviews

classic young adventure.


(4 stars)

I find these short stories that are geared toward young readers perfect for audio book interludes. they are simple and engaging. I thought there wouldn't be enough action for a story about submarines, but much of the story takes place off the submarine, and the action on the submarine is a nail biter.

Fantastic book


(5 stars)

In my opinion this book is the best book in this series. It is dated but it is the perfect book for boys of all ages. It is read well and I enjoyed every minute of it.
