Описание:
In this gripping young adult edition of his multiple award-winning series, Jason Lewis introduces a new generation of readers to one of history's most inspirational adventure stories. Supplemented with intricate maps and educator discussion guide, this adaptation highlights the grit, determination, and resourcefulness demonstrated by novice adventurer Jason and his friends in achieving what the London Sunday Times hailed as "The last great first for circumnavigation."
Late in the afternoon of May 13, 2005, a lone kayaker paddled into a remote bay in northeast Australia. He was exhausted, sunburnt, and looking forward to reaching land after months at sea. But his voyage across the Pacific wasn't over yet. Shortly after making landfall he would be fighting for his life, defending himself and his kayak from a terrifying crocodile attack.
So begins the first in a thrilling adventure trilogy relating Jason Lewis' Guinness World Record-setting journey around the world using only human power--no motors or sails. The young adventurer had already nearly drowned pedalling across the Atlantic, been left for dead by a hit-and-run driver while rollerblading the US, and survived blood poisoning in the doldrums. Now five years since leaving his home in England, Jason seriously wondered whether he had it in him to carry on.
As a shy, misfit teenager, he had defied authority. By the time he left school, Jason knew he wanted to make a difference by helping raise awareness of environmental issues. And what better way to do this than to join his best friend Stevie on a global circumnavigation without using fossil fuels?
This was the motivation driving him forward against all odds, proving that anyone, even without experience or money, can achieve anything they want to, if they just believe in themselves and never give up.

Описание: Double-Edged Sword When a debilitating disease left young Jason physically and intellectually impaired, his adoptive father, Cheiron, brought him back to health with intense exercise, love, and discipline. But Jason's mind had lost years of development, and the question was how to restore its cognitive functions. The solution? Build up the boy's reasoning power by creating a story-an epic tale that would stimulate Jason's creativity and challenge him to think in ways he never had before. Echoing the three-thousand-year-old myth of Jason and the Argonauts, father and son invented a voyage and built a ship for a group of heroes to sail the high seas in pursuit of glory and treasure. As the story progressed, the real Jason's mind improved, but at the expense of getting lost in the game. With Jason's becoming ever more deeply involved in the voyage, confusing fiction with reality, the story began to mesh with the boy's life, affecting his relationships with family and friends. Jason as a Young Boy, set in ancient times, retells a boy's passage from adolescence to manhood. "A retelling of Jason's myth, with an emphasis on the healing power of story...a classic tale...many thrilling moments..." --Kirkus Reviews ..".a powerful recommendation for any who enjoy early Greek history and historical novels based on exploring the psychology of motivation." --Midwest Book Review
