The great wide sea by m h herlong
The Great Wide Sea (ISBN 978-0-670-06330-7) is a novel by M. H. Herlong that pits father against son, and brothers against nature in what the School Library Journal calls "an engrossing, suspenseful tale of survival" at sea.
It was one of the 20 books on the 2009–2010 Texas Lone Star Reading List and has been named to "top young adult" reading lists for middle school and high school students in New Mexico, Texas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Alabama, South Carolina, Illinois, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. It was recognized as one of the best books for young adults by The Young Adult Library Services Association, and was nominated for the 2010 Dorothy Canfield Fisher Award. The Times-Picayune called it one of the best debut novels of the year.
