t was there. Henry Hudson was certain of it. Beyond the impenetrable fog and crushing ice of the North Atlantic lay the dream of kings-a passage to the Orient.
Hudson led four harrowing voyages thousands of miles across the North Atlantic.

THE READ-ALONGTM MAP
For both the explorer and the reader, the key element of any voyage of discovery is the map. While the explorer can have the map in front of him, the reader usually cannot. There's nothing more frustrating than having to flip back to read a map in the middle of reading a story.
For this book, Mikaya Press has designed a Read-AlongTM Map. This gatefold page makes it possible to read about Hudson's travels, and follow them on a map at the same time. More Beyond The Sea of Ice |
