Chasing the Phantom Ship

Matt Simmons has two weeks left of summer before starting grade six. He wants to enjoy that time with his best friends, Danny and Emma, but has to include his younger cousin Adam who is visiting. Trapped on a sandbar in the middle of the night, Matt and Adam see a ghostly, burning schooner before a silent old man rescues them. Matt is determined to unravel the mystery and reluctantly lets Adam join in. With Danny and Emma, they visit Danny’s grandpa, a retired sea captain. He warns them to leave the ghosts and mysteries of the sea alone, but the four friends ignore him. Setting out on a midnight boat trip to find the phantom ship, even little Adam proves a useful part of the team. But how dangerous is the ship, and who else is lurking in the waters of the Northumberland Strait?

Chasing The Phantom Ship By Deborah Toogood

Chasing The Phantom Ship By Deborah Toogood, from @Digitally_Lit and @Nimbuspub was a wonderful book.

Matt and Adam come across the "Phantom Ship" and can't wait until they can tell their friends, Danny and Emma all about it. They want to uncover this great mystery of the great fiery orange Phantom Ship, So the 4 of them sneak out and set out on a midnight boat trip, with snacks and life jackets in hopes to find this Phantom Ship.

I really enjoyed the book, it brought back fond memories of reading ghost stories. It really felt like Nova Scotia. The book was short and interesting and kept me reading till the end. I always wanted to know what they were gonna get into next. The plot line was good and I enjoyed the "waves" of things that came through throughout the story. I rate this book a 4 / 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I recommend this book.
