Survival at Sea (Choose Your Own Adventure, No 16)
vprosser avatar reviewed on + 161 more book reviews


You are sailing with the crew of the Allegro, searching the depths of the Pacific Ocean for the last living dinosaur, the Arkasaur. Only one day out of port, you hear radio reports that an undersea volcano has erupted. A tidal wave is heading toward you! Foaming blue-green water crashes on board. The skipper is thrown to the deck. You have to take the wheel!
If you steer down the wave, turn to p.21. If you try to turn the wheel to the right, turn to p.14. Be careful! You might be shipwrecked on a coral reef, or abandoned at sea in a lifeboat, or trapped in the secret grotto of the Arkasaur!
What will happen to you next? It all depends on how well you read the sea chart. How will the story end? It all depends on the choices you make. And the best part is that you can keep reading and rereading until you've had not one, but many incredibly daring experiences!
