About This Book:

“Captain Grayghost eventually faded from the scene after decades of plundering ships on the high seas between the years of 1675 and 1721, seemingly retiring after years of pirating to spend his golden years treasuring his hoard of gold, silver and precious gems in a secret hideout that was never discovered.  In fact, neither his treasure, nor his pirate ship – the Pieces of Eight – his pirates or Captain Grayghost himself were ever found…which causes people to think that Captain Grayghost and his crew of pirates were all ghosts on a ghost ship, pillaging treasure at will on the high seas…”

About the Author – Mark D. Jones:

“I wanted to write Sam the Tugboat and the Legend of Shipwreck Island ever since first writing Sam the Tugboat and the Lighthouse Keeper, one of ten short stories included in Sam’s first book, The Adventures of Sam the Tugboat.  Once again, Sam finds himself involved in the legend of Captain Grayghost and his ship the Pieces of Eight in the most unexpected of ways.  Perhaps the reason why Sam gets into these situations is because he loves children and understands their inquisitiveness and desire for adventure.  Regardless of how he finds himself drawn into his many adventures, Sam uses all the know-how and ingenuity he can muster to find a way to resolve them safely.  After all, no one loves a happy ending more than Sam does – ‘Toot!, Toot!, Toot!’  Cheers!  Mark”

About This Book:

Jennifer was amazed as she gazed at the most marvelous sight she had ever seen!  Before her in the distance was a wonder to behold – an island of beauty and splendor beyond her wildest dreams!  Rising out of the turquoise blue sea was a majestic tropical island with pristine beaches of sugar-white sand.  The terrain rose steeply into alpine peaks that pierced through a thin layer of wispy clouds.

Rising above the clouds and set against a powder blue sky, stood the most beautiful and fabulous turreted castle glistening in the sunshine!  A colorful and festive array of flags, pennants and streamers flew above the castle’s silver-white stones and pointed slate-shingled turrets.  Jennifer was speechless and spellbound at the sight!”

About the Author – Mark D. Jones:

“‘Sam the Tugboat and the Island Kingdom of Beauty, Dreams and Imagination’ is Sam’s first book devoted entirely to a single adventure.  This story is the follow-on telling of Sam’s earlier short story adventure in Book One called ‘Sam the Tugboat and the Unexpected Discovery.’  While the original short story introduced the Island Kingdom to us, this book completes the tale and takes us on a fabulous journey where everything is fresh, new and larger than life.

Sam takes part in a journey where he is no longer escorting cargo ships, but instead, he escorts young Jennifer to the Island Kingdom where she learns many important lessons which will change her life forever!  We now get an inside view and perspective of how challenging Sam’s adventures can really be, and the amount of effort and determination on everyone’s part to reach a happy ending – because no one likes a happy ending more than Sam the Tugboat – ‘Toot! Toot! Toot!’  Cheers!  Mark”

My Latest Book: The Adventures of Sam the Tugboat

Welcome to The Adventures of Sam the Tugboat: Book One – 10 exciting adventures with Sam and his many friends in and around the waters of the idyllic coastal community of Beach Harbor!

Paperback link:

https://www.amazon.com/Adventures-Sam-Tugboat-adventures-community/dp/1723311758/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8

This is my first book in the Sam the Tugboat series and introduces us to Sam’s little world in the idyllic coastal community of Beach Harbor!  I’ve written 10 individual short stories for this book involving Sam the Tugboat, Fred the Marina Manager, Henry the Harbormaster and all Sam’s many friends and the first responders in and around Beach Harbor, where Sam and Fred work to keep everyone safe and sound – especially little children!

Sam’s a dutiful little tugboat who escorts large container ships in and out of the Port of Beach Harbor as his regular job, but in addition, he and Fred work together as a team with the first responders to keep everyone safe and sound in and around the water – despite some very difficult and even dangerous situations occurring!  The print is slightly larger in the paperback version to make it easier for children to read.

About this Book:

It is with great pleasure that I introduce you to my best buddy and longtime friend, Sam the Tugboat and the beautiful, sunny, pleasant and idyllic coastal community of Beach Harbor!  Please allow me the opportunity to paint a portrait of childlike wonder, sweetness and light as I pull back the curtain to take you, my special guests, on a short tour of Sam’s world especially for you.

Sam’s world is a world of smiles, laughter, sunshine and happy endings – despite the fact that many of his adventures are very serious and quite dangerous in fact!  Somehow, Sam and those who help him, always find a way to save the day to keep everyone safe and sound – especially little children!

About the Author:

My wife always wanted me to write down my Sam the Tugboat stories, but they arrived spontaneously in the moment and afterwards retreated back into my imagination as quickly as they sprang to life during their telling, because Sam the Tugboat stories were meant to entertain our little boy in that singular moment in time.

So now, almost a quarter century later, I’m once again telling original Sam the Tugboat stories for one reason and one reason only – because somewhere out there in the world another child is pleading for just one more story before the lights are turned off at bedtime.  Now they, too, will have the opportunity to participate in the legacy of The Adventures of Sam the Tugboat – just as our son did all those years ago!  Cheers!  Mark
