Nadya Skylung and the Cloudship Rescue
Written by Jeff Seymour Brett Helquist
What a fun adventure story for kids! Nadya lives a wonderful life among the clouds with her friends. Though she has little memory of her parents, Nic, the owner of the ship, looks after her well. He looks after the rest of the crew too, all kids found around the world, all needing a home. One day, a dark fog overtakes their ship. Before they know it, sky pirates board the ship, take captive the three adults, and steal the ship! Now Nadya and the rest of the crew must repair the ship, fight pirates, and save Nic. Can a few kids do the impossible? You’ll have to read the book to find out. I really enjoyed this book and look forward to the next book in the series. The story does feel familiar if you have read The Fog Diver by Joel Ross, but this book has its own charm and readers looking for an exciting story will not be disappointed.
