Bookroo's summary
Pedro, a ship's boy on Columbus' Santa Maria, embarks on a perilous journey across the Atlantic. As he documents his experiences in a journal, he faces the unknown dangers of the New World. Will his writings survive to tell the tale of discovery and adventure, or will they be lost to the sea? Dive into Pedro's world and uncover the secrets of his daring voyage.
From the publisher
Pedro de Salcedo could not have known what adventures lay ahead! His incredible voyage as ship’s boy aboard Christopher Columbus’ Santa Maria would bring both danger and excitement. Pedro captured his experience between the pages of a journal. If he did not return alive perhaps someone, someday would find it and learn of his incredible journey to the New World.
