Book Review1-13

I read the book "TINKERS ISLAND". I review this story.
Jenny Tinker was fourteen years old and lived with her father Sam in London. They worked in Convert Garden market. One day, Jenny saw a man who was running and got a watch in his hand. He gave the watch to Sam suddenly and run away anywhere. Then two policemen came and told Sam to come with them. They did not listen Jenny's story. Jenny didn't have a mother and any brothers and sisters. She went to see Peter Stone who worked in the market. He told her that her father would be sent to Australia. A week later, she watched a big ship whose name was the Black Star. One of the men on it was her father. She hit on an idea to help him. She asked the ship's captain to give her a job. She could get it and worked very hard on the Black Star for six weeks. One night, she went to the captain's room and stole his key. Then she could help her father and they escaped from the ship by a small boat. After eight days, they found an island. Then they were very tired, hungry and thirsty. There were a lot of coconuts and clean water. They began to live there and named the island Tinkers Island. They lived there happily for a year. One morning, she saw a ship and it was coming to the island. They were afraid that it was the Black Star and had to ride it again. Twenty minutes later, the three men were on Tinkers Island. One of the men had a gun and pointed it at Jenny and Sam. He did not kill them and talked with them. At last, he suggested that they go to America with him. The next day, they rode on the Red Rose.
This story was very read and I could read this story for with 5 minutes. This story developed very speedy. Especially, I was surprised that her father was arrested because of st rage reason. When I found this story, I though it was similar to the movie Pirates of the Caribbean. I realized that it was another story.
