Abby by Pamela Walls

South Seas Adventures Series

Review:

I loved reading the sweet and adventurous story of Abby Kendall. When her family decides to move to their uncle’s ranch in Hawaii, Abby is devastated about leaving her best friend Luke. But when he comes aboard the ship as a stowaway, an exciting adventure begins. These books are filled with uplifting messages about friendship, courage, prayer, and trusting in God. It is refreshing to have a more modern book include so many natural, appropriate references to God and faith.
