The sea, the sea, the sea. It rolled and rolled and called to me. Come in, it said, come in. Thirteen-year-old Sophie is the only girl amongst the crew of The Wanderer, made up of her three uncles and two cousins. They sail across the Atlantic toward England, the land of Bompie, her grandfather. The personal journey she takes brings her deeper into a forgotten past than she ever knew possible. Sophie’s 13-year-old cousin Cody isn’t sure why his father brought him along. Everyone, including his dad, thinks he’s nothing but a knucklehead doofus.

Boat Girl is the heartbreaking memoir of growing up aboard a sailboat. Throughout the 1980's and 90's, Melanie's family lived aboard a 47-foot sailboat, spending their summers along the US East Coast and their winters in the Bahamas. But the cruising life was not all fun in the sun. The family had to work hard to pay for their way of life. They dodged hurricanes, overzealous federal agents and bullying land-kids. And they endured a boatload of family drama.

In 1975, seven-year-old Doina Cornell left England with her father Jimmy Cornell, mother and brother to spend the next six years sailing around the world on a small yacht. The author has drawn on her memories, diaries and stories, to re-create the perfect life led by a sailing child: swimming, diving and playing the days away in deserted anchorages; visiting some of the most beautiful islands in the world; falling in love with the sea in all its ever-changing moods, from balmy trade wind ocean passages to the treacherous breakers that crash onto tropical reefs.

Fed up with teenage life in the suburbs, Jaimal Yogis ran off to Hawaii with little more than a copy of Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha and enough cash for a surfboard. His journey is a coming-of-age saga that takes him from communes to monasteries, from the warm Pacific to the icy New York shore. Equal parts spiritual memoir and surfer's tale, this is a chronicle of finding meditative focus in the barrel of a wave and eternal truth in the great, salty blue.

Tania Aebi was an unambitious 18-year-old, a bicycle messenger in New York City by day, a Lower East Side barfly at night. In short, she was going nowhere - until her father offered her a challenge: Tania could choose either a college education or a 26-foot sloop. The only catch was that if she chose the sailboat, she'd have to sail around the world - alone. She chose the boat, and for the next two and a half years and 27,000 miles, it was her home.

Don't we all want our own private island?
Would you listen to Kid Island again? Why?
I have already listened to it twice!
I think we all want to escape to our own tropical island. Jackson's family owns an island and he invites other children to stay with him. "Kids only". Of course, Cause it would be boring to stay alone .... Or only with one or two people.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I didn't have a favorite character. The characters and story was fun, but too light and brief for connections.
What about David Kresser’s performance did you like?
David read whimsically, as though he was reading to a child. I liked that.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
This was a very short listen, with simple chapters; easy to listen at one time.
Any additional comments?
I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author. This in no way influenced my rating - I rate all books I listen to or read.

Very Cute and Entertaining
This was a neat and short children's title with a cute adventure story. It's short, simple, and perfect for a long drive with kids. Adults will enjoy it as well.
The short story centers around the main character, a young boy, who decides he is going to live on an island with no adults. It's the classic children's story with a good plotline and characters.
The narrator was very good and perfect for young listeners. I'd like to hear him do an adult book as well.
I requested and received a free copy of this audiobook from the author, publisher, or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review. I was NOT required to write a positive review and this reflects my honest opinion of the work.

Kid Island Was A Cute Story
Kid Island was a good listen. I waited until my grandchildren visited to listen with them and it was unanimously good. The ages were all above the 5-7 range. I fast-forwarded through the part of the beginning where the will and the loss of a grandparent was talked about. It's basically dependent on what someone is comfortable with their kids hearing. Aside from that the story was super cute and fun.
David Kresser did a fine job narrating. He had good voice inflection that were entertaining and fun. He was also easy to understand and follow. Great job.

Bad narration
The narration is pretty bad. Parts of it are better than others. It sounds like it was spliced together, maybe recorded in two different places or two different times. It almost sounds like it was done by two different people. It’s pretty terrible. The story is not that great either. Very simplistic.
