In good condition
 
Grace is a lively, courageous 10‑year‑old girl living in London in 1808. Life is hard for her — she’s an orphan, poor, and constantly trying to survive on the streets with very little protection. When she is caught stealing a loaf of bread, she is sentenced to be transported to the faraway colony of New South Wales in Australia.
The story follows Grace as she:
is arrested and taken to the Hulk, a grim prison ship
faces the terrifying reality of being sent across the world
meets other girls and women who will shape her journey
discovers her own strength, resilience, and hope
Although her situation is frightening, Grace’s spirit is bright. She is brave, curious, and determined to survive whatever comes next. The book ends with her preparing for the long voyage to Australia — setting up the rest of her series.
