Sailing for Gold
Deborah Hopkinson
- Gold
- Rush!
Seattle,
- July
- 1897
Ever
- since
- his
- mother
- died,
- Davey
- has
- had
- a
- secret
- plan:
- He's
- saving
- his
- money
- so
- he
- can
- run
- away
- to
- Alaska
- to
- find
- Uncle
- Walt,
- the
- only
- relative
- he
- has.
- No
- one
- is
- going
- to
- stop
- him
- --
- not
- even
- mean
- Mrs.
- Tinker,
- who
- owns
- the
- Seattle
- boardinghouse
- where
- Davey
- lives
- and
- works.
When
- gold
- is
- discovered
- in
- the
- Klondike,
- Davey
- is
- convinced
- that's
- where
- he'll
- find
- his
- uncle.
- But
- then
- Davey's
- money
- disappears,
- and
- with
- it
- his
- hopes
- of
- finding
- his
- uncle
- --
- until
- Davey
- comes
- up
- with
- a
- new,
- much
- more
- dangerous plan.
