Grace Darling (BR13)

Daniel looked at the angry sea with its terrible waves, and he felt cold and frightened. He remembered the small young woman alone in the boat by Harker's Rock. 'Great God.' he thought. 'You made that girl strong, like an angel. Make me strong, too, like her.'

The story written in the book is true. The time when this accident happened, the ship soaked in the sea because the sea was stormy. I think passengers of the ship might think 'we would die.' But they didn't die because Grace Darling, a brave girl helped them. "And when she prayed, she heard a voice in her head. 'Go to the window, Grace.' it said. 'Go and look out.'" There were the sentences in this book. I know the sea has many faces because I have lived near the sea until 18 years old. Sometimes it is calm and gentle, but sometimes it is wild, and angry, and dangerous.
