Lucy is looking for adventure. She hatches an ambitious plan to row across the Atlantic Ocean. She imagines being visited by whales and wandering seabirds, enjoying shooting stars and moon bows out on the open waves. Her family rallies round to help her prepare for the journey, loading her boat Izzy with enough supplies for 3000 miles of rowing. While her classmates at school follow Lucy's adventure from afar, learning about the oceans, plastic pollution and wildlife, out at sea Lucy must face the challenges of storms, seasickness and sore bottoms all alone whilst discovering she is capable of more than she ever imagined.
