Captain Sylvia is a children’s book written by Marion Ames Taggart. The story revolves around a young girl named Sylvia who dreams of becoming a captain of a ship. She lives with her family near the sea and spends most of her time watching the ships sail by. One day, she gets a chance to go on a voyage with her uncle, who is a captain. Sylvia learns about the different parts of the ship and the responsibilities of the crew members. She also faces challenges, such as a storm at sea and a crew member falling ill. With her determination and quick thinking, Sylvia helps her uncle and the crew overcome these obstacles. In the end, Sylvia returns home with a newfound confidence and a desire to pursue her dream of becoming a captain. The book is beautifully illustrated and is a great read for children who love adventure and the sea.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
