Synopsis
“McCaulay’s prose is lyrical. A solemn adventure about resolve, loyalty, and family, that gives readers insight into life in a small fishing community and brings to light the dangers marine life face in the wild.” — School Library Journal“The relationships between boy and elder, man and sea, crime and poverty all lift McCaulay’s first children’s novel into a different league. Beautiful.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)“The heartbreaking realism of this story of innocence lost at sea truly sets this novel apart.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books“This makes a good choice for adventure fans, the eco-conscious, and those hoping to understand the economic hardships faced by those who make their living from the sea.” — Booklist“Gone to Drift is a compelling coming-of-age story with a strong sense of place and culture.” — Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA)
