This book introduces a few important Maritime Educational concepts to students age 11-12 and older. Composed of a brief text and hand-made colorful illustrations, it tells the story of a Surfing apprentice who enters a special learning program that emphasizes environmental taming prior to surfboard manipulation. The story works as a propitious background for evoking certain reflections over the actions one is supposed to perform in order to properly behave on the beach with regard to the main surf hazards. FOREWORD EXCERPT: This is the first book I've come across that specifically seeks to introduce Surfing to a younger age group (...) More importantly, Bruno Castello da Costa's book presents Surfing, almost entirely, with respects to the practicalities of both, the joys and coming to terms with the potential risks, of being in the sea (Dr. NICHOLAS FORD, UNIVERSITY OF PLYMOUTH, UK).
