Pirate's Gold Summary
|
Aaron Elkin's new book, Pirate's Gold, tells the exciting story about a teenage boy, David Lassiter, who loves to read and
dream about pirates, sailing, and hidden treasures. Little does he know that his dreams are about to come true! As a result of being a member of a broken family, David gets sent off to Florida to live with his great-uncle Stephen, because his mother is not able to afford to take care of him. After his arrival in Florida, David gets a chance to go out in a sailboat, the "Seabird," along with his friends. One of his best friends is a young lady, which causes David all kinds of humorous embarrassment, as he struggles with "girls." In addition, he learns a lot about life from the social and ethical dilemmas that he encounters along the way. But the focus of the story is the fun and adventure that David and his friends have involving a pirate, Gunter Christian, and the hidden treasure captured and hidden away by the pirate Molas during his colorful 40-year career as a pirate on the Yucatan peninsula, during the seventeenth century. David's life is transformed in a positive way, as he learns about sailing the high seas, hunting for lost treasure, and what it means to choose the right path in life. |
