“Zakka's Debt”

In "Zakka's Debt," young Joseph Chatham and his family sail from their American plantation to England, where Joseph forms an unlikely bond with Zakka, a gentle giant from the Pacific Islands. When the crew mutinies and imprisons Zakka, a violent storm strikes—killing the captain and leaving the ship crippled. With the vessel tilting and no hope in sight, Joseph must convince his father to free Zakka, whose strength may be their only chance to survive. Art by Reed Crandall brings the tense voyage to life, while Ray Willner’s cover captures the drama of the sea and the towering figure of Zakka.

Joseph Chatham and his parents are sailing from their American plantation to England. Joseph befriends Zakka, a Pacific Islander giant who is devoted to the Captain. The crew mutiny's and assaults Zakka, who defends himself, but is put below in chains. A storm breaks out and the mast breaks and kills the Captain. The cowardly crew abandons ship. The storm subsides, but the ship is tilted by the fallen mast. Joseph persuades his father to free Zakka, who lifts the mast and tosses it overboard. He can sail the ship, and Mr. Chatham can navigate, so they return home.
