{"product_id":"captain-red-graham-simpson-9781918917031","title":"Captain Red","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn the days when tall ships ruled the Atlantic and a single voyage could make a fortune - or end at the bottom of the sea - one name was spoken with equal parts fear and wonder: Captain Red.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTowering and red-bearded, feared from the merchant lanes of Virginia to the coast of Spain, Captain Red is no ordinary pirate. The gold he takes from treasure-laden ships never lines his own pockets - it sails home to a hidden island in the Caribbean, where his crew live as farmers and builders for half the year and share their plunder with the islanders who shelter them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor Jonas Robinson, the dockside son of a merchant seaman, a life at sea is the only escape from the grim factories waiting to swallow boys his age. When he talks his way into a cabin boy's berth, he has no idea that earning his place aboard the \u003cem\u003eGolden Lion\u003c\/em\u003e will demand far more than knowing a bowsprit from a mainmast. He'll have to prove his honesty, his nerve, and his loyalty - and outlast a bigger, meaner rival who swears to make him pay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough howling storms, narrow escapes, and the thunder of cannon fire, Jonas learns the ropes, the stars, and a kind of courage that can't be taught on dry land. But the sea has a long memory, and an old enemy is waiting on the horizon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eA rousing high-seas adventure about honesty, bravery, and finding your place in the world, \u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCaptain Red\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eis perfect for readers aged 8-12 and fans of classic pirate tales like\u003c\/em\u003e Treasure Island.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Graham Simpson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1918917035\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781918917031\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kingsford Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/23\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.48d","brand":"Graham Simpson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48997847335167,"sku":"9781918917031","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/captain-red-graham-simpson-9781918917031","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
