 Little Miss Set Sail

“Here’s your map and compass and don’t forget, be… safe… Love you!” said Ava’s mum Emma. Ava was about to set sail for the very first time. Her mum packed her navigation things,food and water in one bag.The other bag had clothes and sleeping bags. She was going with Captain Krook. He’s a nice guy. They are going on a ship to New Zealand.

As they said their goodbyes went off Into the open sea a terrible storm approached.” Oh no, what are we going to do.” said Ava frightendly.”Don't worry Ava, I have come across these types of storms many times.” replied Captain Krook. The storm got bigger and bigger. Then suddenly out of nowhere… A huge title wave was coming in their direction. The ship flipped.

Luckily they had a smaller rowing boat. Captain Krook was about to untie the boat from the when Ava said “Don’t do that. The wave hasn’t left yet. If we take out the boat it will flip over too.” They waited until the wave went away. Finally Captain Krook untied the boat they put on life vests and rowed all the way. They took turns rowing.

They used the map to locate where they were. Used the compass to find north. They were on the right track. Finally they saw land and rowed to it. They got off the boat and heard the birds chirp. When they reached the land they saw… Captain Krook brother Captain Kook. “ Hello brother, welcome to New Zealand.” After they spent some time there it was time to leave. “Goodbye brother and come again soon.”
