$26.99
What do an educator, a mechanic, a salesman, a housewife, an engineer, and an artist, have in common?
'The Voyage of Yankee Lady' tells the story of six very different sailors, all retired, who cruised three modest sailboats, on modest budgets, for three thousand miles along the Canadian and American waterways that surround New England. They found their way into almost ninety harbors and anchorages, watched the weather, coped with storms, solved mechanical problems, and viewed magnificent scenery.
Their encounters with whales, stops at rural fishing ports, and experiences with friendly Americans and Canadians will make you wish you were there. Anyone who dreams of retiring and going on adventures will enjoy their lively, exciting, and often funny experiences.
A long voyage is taken one day at a time. 'The Voyage of Yankee Lady' will inspire you to brave new waters and live to tell the tale!

Thus begins this delightfully illustrated children s book Barnstorming, The second of the Uncle Tom books by Uncle Tom Merriam. Full of rhythm and rhyme, and just plain fun, Barnstorming is great to read to younger children and just as much fun for older children to read aloud.
