Old Neb and the Ghost Ship is a charming story about the children of the lighthouse keeper on a pristine barrier island four miles off Florida's Gulf Coast. Their summer days are spent swimming, soaking up the sun, and looking for adventure under the watchful eyes of Old Neb, a shaggy and remarkable horse with a mind of his own. In this adventure, twelve-year-old Betty sees a black ship with flashing lights through fog on the bay, their garden scarecrow seems to move, and Old Neb is mysteriously lame. The cause for these mysteries is finally revealed, and Neb turns out to be a hero. This is the second book in the Old Neb series for middle school readers. See all of the books in this series
In Old Neb and The Lighthouse Treasure, it is the 1930s and we meet Neb, a horse who belongs to himself, and two families living on a white-beached island jewel set in the blue water of the Gulf of Mexico. Papa, the lighthouse keeper on St. George Island, does his best to help Elizabeth Ann and her friends come of age. He balances keeping them safe with allowing them to learn about life in a world filled with beauty and, sometimes, a little too much adventure. In this first Old Neb story, the three children spend a summer searching for pirate treasure. This is a charming adventure story for middle grade readers set at an appealing time and place.
