Still Skylarkin': A Hugh Harnlee Naval Saga

The mischievous Max is a few weeks off his ninth birthday, and asks his best friend Fred to 'Break Biche' - leave school early - and have some fun by the sea. Fred gives in to his friend's persuasion and off they go. As strange and interesting as their adventures prove to be, the question hanging over them is: what will happen when they go home?
