The Lost Log of the Light-Sailor

Kids’ Stories Book

By: Ayokunle Mathew Akinbi

Narrated by: Alyssa Shelton Curry

Ten-year-old John believes life at the lonely Starfish Point Lighthouse is as predictable as the tides—until a mischievous seagull leads him to a forbidden, dusty attic. There, he discovers a mysterious book whose pages aren't written in ink, but in shimmering, captured starlight. It is the lost log of the legendary Light-Sailor, and it hums with forgotten magic.

Pulled into a quest that unfolds with the rhythm of the waves, John must follow a map of the midnight sun and trust a compass that points to dreams. His journey will take him through glimmering grottos lit by glowing jellyfish, across a sea where footprints are made of moonbeams, and to a secret island that appears only at dawn.

Aided by a boastful barnacle and a wise, ancient sea turtle, John must unravel the riddles of the tides to find The Lumina a magnificent ship that sails not on water, but on starlight itself. He soon learns that the Light-Sailor's treasure isn't gold or jewels, but a secret far more wondrous. The Lost Log of the Light-Sailor is a breathtaking adventure about the magic that connects the deepest oceans to the brightest stars, and the courage it takes to follow a mysterious light into the great unknown.

Cute story.

This was a cute little story, easy to listen to. Good for the little ones.

Amazing descriptive adventure

We loved listening to the narrator; she made the story come alive! The details and descriptive words used truly made us feel like we were there and experiencing the adventure with John. My 8 year old daughter was so into the book that she sat quietly for the entire 30 minutes listening to the story. She said she loved the entire thing.
