The White Boat Rescue

The motorboat Vida Eterna is racing up and down Sugar Creek and leaving excitement in its wake. Its owner, John Fenwick, a missionary to Costa Rica, and his wife are spending a month in the new Sugar Creek missionary cabin. A new rifle and a fishing tackle box lead to some life or death adventures for the Sugar Creek Gang. As you read this book, you'll see the importance of swimming upstream with your life, like the Sugar Creek Gang, rather than floating downstream, like an old dead fish.

The Sugar Creek Gang series chronicles the faith-building adventures of a group of fun-loving, courageous Christian boys. These classic stories have been inspiring children to grow in their faith for more than five decades. More than three million copies later, children continue to grow up relating to members of the gang as they struggle with the application of their Christian faith to the adventure of life.

Now that these stories have been updated for a new generation, you and your child can join in the Sugar Creek excitement.


Paul Hutchens's memories of childhood adventures around the fishing hole, the swimming hole, the island, and the woods that surround Indiana's Sugar Creek inspired these beloved tales.
