Book Reviews of DoveBook Review: Great experience for an ESL student Summary: 5 Stars
I'm an ESL student in Norwalk Communnity T. College and I had to read Dove as an assinment. That was an excellent opportunity for me to learn about nature and life's experience. I'd like to congratulate Robin and his wife for sharing his experiences with other people by publiching this wonderful book
Book Review: Greatly affected me as a young man. Immature when read now. Summary: 3 Stars
This was the one book that captured me as a teenager. I must have read it 5 times. It caused me to love sailing and adventure both real and in the form of travel writing. I re-read it as an adult a few years ago and was struck by how immature the book, and Robin, was. But, it is a book of growth. Read his sequel "Home is the Sailor" to continue his journey into manhood and his spiritual quest.
Book Review: I couldn't put it down! Summary: 5 Stars
I just got Dove from my school's library today and have already finished it! I could not put it down for a second until I was done. I am a scuba diver and have only dreamed of going to all the places that Robin visited. I read one of the reviews that said there is a sequel to Dove and I can't wait to read it. This is a very special book and I know that I will read it over and over again.
Book Review: I loved it! Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a very good book for young, and old sailors alike, to read. If you understand sailing language and like the ocean and its atmospheree you will surely love this book. It tells the life story of a boy and his love of the ocean and sailing as well as a real life love story.
Book Review: I thought the book 'DOVE' was a fun book to read. Summary: 5 Stars
Hello my name is Alexis and I go to Sycamore Jr. High School in Cincinnait, Ohio. When our joined classes read the book DOVE I thought it was great. Each group would read a chapter and then would explain it to the class. We used a very hands-on methed to try to learn abot Robin and his trip around the world in a 24-foot sloop. {the boat the he used} It was fun to learn about someone so close to our own ages to do something so brave! In his marvelous adventure, he learns about love, loss, and many truely incredibel experiences. I only wish that I could be as brave as him!
