Shirley Bogart

I think that this is a good book. I liked that the author used animal characters, like a newt, to portray human actions and communicate the message to readers. As a reader, I was able to relate to the story, while also being engaged by the unusual animal main character. I also thought that the illustrations fit the style of the text because they were bright and colorful, just like the characters' personalities in the story. The main idea of this book is that it is not right to steal.

Ishmael, a young school teacher, signs up on a whaling ship to seek adventure. With his unexpected friend Queequeg, a cannibal harpooner, he joins the Pequod, captained by the mysterious Ahab. But Ahab is only interested in seeking revenge upon the great white whale, Moby Dick, who took off Ahab's leg on an earlier trip. It's a hair raising whale hunt where Ishmael's search for adventure turns into a desperate wish to survive.

A fantastic classic that will make you love every second of it. Hard to put down this classic. Great details and it will leave you wanting more.
