Little Tim books

Tim and his family become very fond of the girl that he and Ginger rescue from the sea, and everyone--or almost everyone--is unhappy when she is taken away by her guardian.

When Ginger runs away to go to sea, Tim and Charlotte follow him and, having no money to return home, sign on as members of a ship's crew and have many adventures, including a shipwreck, before they find Ginger again.
