Michael Morpurgo’s Alone on a Wide Wide Sea tells the story of 12-year-old Art, who sets sail with a group of orphans on a rickety ship to a new life in Australia. Along the way, they endure storms, befriends a mysterious albatross, and struggle against the sea’s relentless tides. As the journey progresses, each child deals with their past and finds the courage to confront their uncertain future. Ultimately, the faith and resilience of the young passengers gives them the power to survive the journey, no matter how wide the sea.
