Summary

"Smout watches the waves on an island in the North Sea and imagines shipwrecks and cabin boys and pirates and treasure. Smout's father wants him to learn how to count those waves; a Lighthouse Stevenson needs to know, he tells his son. But Smout is lucky. His father understands the lure of stories. And readers for many generations have been lucky, too, because of the exciting stories the little boy grew up to write." --Book jacket
