Moby Dick

More about the book

In a specially adapted version for young readers by Shirley Bogart. Despite strange warnings, Ishmael, a young school teacher, signs up on a whaling ship, only to discover that her commander is the one-legged, fanatic Captain Ahab, whose only goal in life is revenge on the Great White Whale who crippled him. With an unexpected blood-brother in the person of a tattooed South Sea cannibal harpooner, Ishmael sets out on a hair-raising whale hunt that can have only one ending—death!
