The Voyage of Patience Goodspeed

Can Patience rescue the Morning Star’s crew?

Precocious Patience Goodspeed, almost thirteen, hates to leave Nantucket and her treasured math tutor for a three year whaling voyage. Patience’s father, Isaiah Goodspeed, runs a tight ship. Between endless kitchen duty and run ins with the motley crew, she hardly has time to learn navigation. But smooth sailing gives way to a rocky course: Soon suspicious mates come aboard and maroon Patience’s father and brother on a deserted island. And Patience is faced with a problem that will take more than just brains to solve.

The Education of Patience Goodspeed

When the Morning Star sets sail on the Pacific in 1836, fourteen year old Patience Goodspeed can’t wait to be the assistant navigator. But when danger strikes, Captain Goodspeed whisks his children, Patience and Tad, and their aunt Anne off to a boarding school in Hawaii until the ship returns. Here Reverend Wiggins, the headmaster, thinks girls should study sewing instead of math. Then there’s more trouble in paradise: Fanny Starbuck, a widow from Nantucket, is the silliest and frilliest etiquette teacher ever. And Patience discovers that Fanny’s been writing love letters to the ship; fetching a proposal from Papa, for sure! Sometimes growing up on dry land can be even rockier than a voyage on the sea, but Patience is about to learn that true friendship will sail her through it.
