I love reading this book with my daughter! The very first time I read this wonderful book by Neal Parker I couldn't help tearing up a little bit. I think any dad who shares this with their daughter will be touched by Parker's amazing story. Set on the Maine shores and beyond, Captain Annabel is beautifully illustrated and very well written. I could relate with this single father watching his daughter grow up and go out on her own. The bond between Annabel and her "Papa" is powerful!

CAPTAIN ANNABEL
Published 2004 Down East Books
Illustrated by Emily Harris
Hard Cover, 36 Pages
This is the story of a small girl who, encouraged by her father, takes to the sea at an early age. Through her own diligence and efforts she works her way up through the ranks of schooners, ferries and tankers. By the time she is a young woman Annabel is the master of her own tugboat. Though "Captain Annabel" uses a maritime theme as a backdrop, it is more the story of hard work and self-reliance.
