(3) 4-6 A scientific exploration to the Amazon leads to mutiny aboard the nineteenth-century ship Polaris. Although the children on board survive, they are faced with the typical dangers of a sea journey home, as well as some sort of monster lurking below decks. There's just enough science to give the sci-fi creature some credibility, and the characters' motivations ring true.
