Sinopse

In "The Dreadnought Boys' World Cruise," John Henry Goldfrap crafts an adventurous narrative that captivates young readers with its imaginative depiction of global exploration in the early 20th century. Written in a lively, engaging style, the book is imbued with a sense of camaraderie and whimsy, chronicling the daring escapades of a group of boys aboard a naval vessel as they traverse various continents. Goldfrap's vivid descriptions and fast-paced dialogue not only entertain but also serve as a subtle commentary on the maritime culture of the time, reflecting the burgeoning interest in adventure literature during the era of exploration and imperialism. John Henry Goldfrap, often recognized for his contributions to juvenile literature, drew inspiration from his extensive travels and fascination with naval history. His background, likely influenced by the contemporary fascination with technology and seafaring, infused his writing with authenticity and a sense of purpose, allowing young readers to connect with the themes of bravery and friendship. Goldfrap's unique lens places his characters in situations that challenge both their nautical skills and moral compasses, making for a well-rounded narrative. This book is an excellent recommendation for young readers who crave adventure and camaraderie, while also serving as an engaging educational tool about naval life and global awareness. "The Dreadnought Boys' World Cruise" promises to ignite the imagination and inspire a love of exploration, making it a timeless addition to any young adventurer's bookshelf.

    Hickory, Dickory, Dock! 
    The mouse ran up the clock. 
    The clock struck one, 
    The mouse ran down, 
    Hickory, Dickory, Dock! 
    WITHIN the hollow wall of an old brick mansion, away up near the roof, there lived a family of mice. It was a snug little home, pleasant and quiet, and as dark as any mouse could desire. Mamma Mouse liked it because, as she said, the draught that came through the rafters made it cool in summer, and they were near enough to the chimney to keep warm in winter-time. 
    Besides the Mamma Mouse there were three children, named Hickory and Dickory and Dock. There had once been a Papa Mouse as well; but while he was hunting for food one night he saw a nice piece of cheese in a wire box, and attempted to get it. The minute he stuck his head into the box, however, it closed with a snap that nearly cut his head off, and when Mamma Mouse came down to look for him he was quite dead. The story becomes better after this somber opening, trust me. Find out why those mice ran up that clock.
