EARLY PRAISE FOR WAVEWALKER 'I once said my top priority was education, education, education, and this powerful book shows why. In the most difficult circumstances, trapped at sea on a boat, surviving violent storms, Suzanne has demonstrated how education can transform a life' Tony Blair 'A seven-year old girl on a seventy-foot yacht, for ten years, over fifty thousand miles of sailing: Suzanne Heywood's utterly captivating account is, yes, a fantastic story of a truly Odyssean journey across all the world's great oceans - but is also the inspiring story of the developing of a restless and inquiring mind. A wonderful, unforgettable book that I urge everyone to read' Simon Winchester 'Even for an experienced sailor, a ten-year voyage across some of the world's most dangerous oceans would give pause for thought. That Suzanne survived this and made her way back to dry land and a successful future is remarkable. Her book is stunningly good' Ranulph Fiennes, World's Greatest Living Explorer , 'This is a story of an epic childhood journey, so exciting and so shocking it is hard to know whether you're reading about a dream or a nightmare... Wavewalker is thrilling, horrifying, beautifully written - I couldn't put it down' Ed Balls 'Her fight for an education will astonish all who read it' Anthony Seldon 'An extraordinary story of adventure and self-discovery' Minouche Shafik 'A jaw-dropping and thrilling real-life adventure on the high seas' Sarah Brown 'The story of extraordinary upbringing on a boat in the South Pacific recounted with wit, verve and deep insight... Humanity's innate passion for learning shines on every page and triumphs gloriously' Sir Michael Barber, author of Accomplishment: How Ambitious and Challenging Things Get Done

Synopsis
THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER A TIMES BEST MEMOIR OF 2023 'Grippingly vivid and pacey' THE TIMES 'A seven-year old girl on a seventy-foot yacht, for ten years, over fifty thousand miles of sailing' SIMON WINCHESTER 'An astonishing almost day-by-day account of [a] hazardous journey and its legacy' TELEGRAPH 'This is a story of an epic childhood journey, so exciting and so shocking it is hard to know whether you're reading about a dream or a nightmare... Wavewalker is thrilling, horrifying, beautifully written - I couldn't put it down' ED BALLS Aged just seven, Suzanne Heywood set sail with her parents and brother on a three-year voyage around the world. What followed turned instead into a decade-long way of life, through storms, shipwrecks, reefs and isolation, with little formal schooling. No one else knew where they were most of the time and no state showed any interest in what was happening to the children. Suzanne fought her parents, longing to return to England and to education and stability. This memoir covers her astonishing upbringing, a survival story of a child deprived of safety, friendships, schooling and occasionally drinking water... At seventeen Suzanne earned an interview at Oxford University and returned to the UK. From the bestselling author of What Does Jeremy Think?, Wavewalker is the incredible true story of how the adventure of a lifetime became one child's worst nightmare - and how her determination to educate herself enabled her to escape 'A classic memoir of childhood. This is a book that every parent should read to consider the consequences of their midlife crises, and every child should read to learn how to deal with impossible mums and dads, as well as boils and barnacles' Mail on Sunday 5* 'An electrifying story about an extraordinary childhood, and Heywood tells it with remarkable clarity and assurance . . . an engrossing book that pitches the reader into the highs and lows of a young life spent in the "Wavewalker School of the Sea"'TLS, 'A jaw-dropping and thrilling real-life adventure on the high seas for a girl who just craved normality and finally found her way back to it' SARAH BROWN Aged just seven, Suzanne Heywood set sail with her parents and brother on a three-year voyage around the world.

I am very pleased with my order, and I would definitely order from them again.Legacy of Gods Series 5 Books Set by Rina Kent (English, Paperback) USA STOCK (Nr. 306193244049)
- e***a (68)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufAll books were new and in great condition, there was a small bend on one corner but I’m okay with that as it probably happens during shipping. I bought this set to display on my bookshelf because I love the covers. Shipping was okay, I did place the order on a Saturday so the packing took a little longer but once I got a tracking number the books arrived within a couple of days. Would purchase with this seller again.Legacy of Gods Series 5 Books Set by Rina Kent (English, Paperback) USA STOCK (Nr. 306193244049)
