"Set on an island in Lake Superior, in the early 1900s, this book tells of a boy's efforts to get his own boat, like his father and all the other fishermen have. The sequence of events involving Carl helping others and trading work for help build to a satisfying conclusion."

    " This was an interesting story but mostly because I was familiar with the area it was about, Sand Island in Lake Superior. It was also written about a boy that lived about the time my father was growing up. "

    " Perfect historical fiction about a boy living on an island community in Lake Superior in the early 20th century...our favorite story elements of independent responsible child, hardship, hard work and an island come together in a beautiful story with great illustrations. "
