Search for Treasure by Mary Alice Monroe, Angela May (With), Jennifer Bricking (Illustrated by)


Jake is staying with his grandmother on an island.  There are a lot of natural things to search out and learn about.  His dad is there, too, but he's depressed.  He lost one of his legs in a war...

Aladdin and Edelweiss let me read this book for review (thank you).  It has been published and you can get a copy now.

Jake has two friends, and they do everything together.  Once they find out there is hidden treasure on the island, they begin their own search.  His dad had found some coins, years back.  Jake gets him to join in the search.

The biggest problem is that the overgrowth has hidden the clues and some branches have fallen, making it harder to find.

In the meantime, there is another treasure seeker on the island.  He's an old man but he scares the kids.

Will they find their dad's map?  Will they find Blackbeard's treasure?
