Publisher Description
The year is 1968. After spending the first half of summer vacation driving her Italian family crazy with her fake southern accent, 10-year old A.J. finds a soul mate on the other side of the island to divert her attention.
She is intrigued to learn that Danny shares her same burning desire to know God and realizes that few people her age think as deeply as the two of them do. However, the depth of their newfound faith and friendship is soon tested when Danny's father betrays his wife.
Set in a simpler time, Saving Sailor is a heartwarming tale of how hearts can change and relationships can be restored with God's help.

Childhood Memories
I remember Miss Riva came to my elementary school, Columbia Ridge, & did a book signing of Saving Sailor! Unfortunately though the years have passed & I have lost my signed copy of Saving Sailor.. I do remember quite enjoying this novel even if I only was in 4th grade. Now, as a senior in high school, I wish I hadn't lost such a classic trophy! What a wonderful novel Miss Renee Riva!
Fantastic and witty!
Renee is so charming in this novel as she introduces us to little AJ. I haven't laughed out loud so often in a book...ever. I adored her family and the whole wholesome story! It's so refreshing to have such a wonderful read as well as keep the Biblical faith I adore hearing. Pick this book up as it is well worth it!
