movie
I heard that there is a movie coming out based on this book, coming out in 2011. I just read the book and I will be seeing the movie when it comes out next year!

An instant classic
Zachariah (the African-American cook) is whipped and forges his death. Jaggery is unkind, rude, cruel, and unfair. Kids will learn the various parts of a ship.

nicely written
I read this book in 5th grade, so if you're in fifth grade (or a mature fourth grader) this book is for you!
So I thought this was going to be the dumbest book ever, because it was assigned reading in class. But when I got into it, I was proved wrong. It was beautifully written with many messages throughout. This is a must-read. I rate it ON for 10 and up, PAUSE for 8-9 year olds, and OFF for 7 and under.

Not for Teens
I read this book and it freaked me out. I read it only because it was assigned in class and I had to read it. I had nightmares and it was very graphic. Every other page there was either killing or blood.

Very Enjoyable
This book was an amazing read! I read is as my classic for summer homework and I was very engaged. There is some violence, but I read right through it. I hope this review helped!

Okay; not for little kids
I had to read this book in school and I was very suprised by it. It started out very boring and slow but I thought it got pretty exciting during some parts. Not very graphic but very suspenseful; not for little kids.
