Moby Dick

In the realistic fiction book Moby Dick by Herman Melville, a man named Ishmael decides to go on a whaling ship for a while. The captain of the boat that Ishmael goes on is Captain Ahab. The captain’s leg was taken off by Moby Dick, the white whale. Ahab has made it his journey to kill the white whale. I loved this book because there was a lot of action and suspense all the way through the book and a confusing prophecy that comes true. Another thing I liked is that the story is a classic that is made easy to read but still has many of the same famous lines. -Aidan
