O'Brien introduces the HMS Bounty to young readers in this generously illustrated volume that includes double-page spreads, full-page illustrations, and quarter- and half-page frames reminiscent of graphic novels. Potentially unfamiliar words frequently have both brief descriptions and spot illustrations. Accessible and clear, this straightforward account allows young readers a glimpse of an event that is part of our cultural literacy.
