Our new book, aimed mainly at 10 + year olds tells the story of LV50 through the eyes on a young crew member. From first setting foot on the boat to a very different ending.
Once again Emma Whitehall has written us a superb book we’re very proud of, this time aimed at Young Adult readers. I hope you all enjoy as much as I did.
You can get your copy from The Project Space in the Keel Row Blyth, The Bounds Bookshop in Whitley Bay or from the Friends directly. Why not come along to one of our open days on the last Thursday between April and September (11:00-16:00) to get a copy. If none of these work for you email us on friendsoflv50@gmail.com and we’ll see how we can help you.
