The People of the Sea: "Dolphin Island" by Arthur C. Clarke
“Johnny Clinton was sleeping when the hovership raced down the valley, floating along the old turnpike on its cushion of air. [..] To any boy of the twenty.first century, it was a sound of magic, telling of far-off countries and strange cargoes carried in the first ships that could travel with equal ease across land and sea.”
In “Dolphin Island” by Arthur C. Clarke
“Dolphin Island” was one of the very first proper book I read, or tried to read, in English, when I was 10 or 11, in primary school, and I loved it. My dad had given it to me, because he thought it would make a good first read for a boy who was trying to teach himself English at the time.
