It is set in the 17th century London where Philip Marsham flees after a terrible accident and signs on with the Rose of Devon, a dark frigate bound for Newfoundland. During the voyage, the frigate is seized by pirates and Philip is forced to join them.
It won the Newbery Medal award."

"This is a classic, written by Robert Newton Peck. The back of the book explains it quite well: "It is a timeless story of a Shaker boy, his beloved pet pig, and the joys and hardships that mark his passage into manhood.""

"I read this book quite some time ago but remember it to have some very sad parts. The inside cover says this 'Fine Things is a tale of survival, drama, and powerful caring... It is a tale of loss, survival, adn the price we sometimes pay for loving.'"

"If your son is a hockey player or likes the sport, this is a great book. It provides a lot of great facts about the history of hockey and its players. Its worth reading just for the quotes from various players and coaches. A favorite one is from Vladislav Tretiak, legendary Central Red Army Team (USSR) goalie from 1969-84: "There is no position in sports as noble as that of goaltending.""
