I need to pay more attention when I select a book in the giveaways section. I expected this to be nonfiction, and, while based on history, it is definitely fiction. In addition, it is fiction meant for young people, which I decidedly am not. I did read it, in spite of all this. If I were 50 years younger, I think I would have enjoyed this book very much. Young Johnny Adams is on a ship with his father, going to France to seek help with the war for independence. In addition, there's a secret mission that he doesn't know about, but hears some sailors discussing when they don't know he's listening. Young Johnny and his friends eventually save the day in the manner of all young people's literature and everyone, except the bad guys, goes home happy. If you're a late elementary school or secondary school student, I think this book would be a good read. (
