A ship gets torpedoed. A girl lands in a lifeboat. And suddenly, 13-year-old Beth is in a real-life survival story.

Told in fast, emotional verse, Lifeboat 5 is gripping, gut-punching, and based on a true WWII event. Think high seas, big courage, and zero time to panic. If you loved Lifeboat 12, this is your next must-read.
