  What was Captain doing in Dragon' s sandbox? He was moping. Because he' d lost his ship.
  " Oh, no! I' ll help you find it! Come on!" Dragon said.
  " Where are we going?" Captain asked.
  " To my cave! I know I have a map there somewhere."
  Armed with a (toy watch) compass, a (paper towel tube) telescope, and a (handdrawn) map, Dragon and Captain set off on a great adventure.
  Dragon is a boy who always wears his dragon robe. And Captain is a boy with a three-sided hat. But as the boys' imaginations take over, we see them as they see themselves, and the backyard as the boys see it: a dark forest, a craggy cliff, and the immense sea.
  Illustrated like a comic book, this book is a fantasy-filled graphic novel for the picture book set.
  Can Dragon and Captain find the lost ship… before lunch?

  Adam Bede

  George Eliot

  George Eliot was the pen name of Mary Ann Evans – an ironic 'deception' given that Adam Bede, her first novel, is written unashamedly from a feminist standpoint. The story centres on a pastoral love triangle. Two young men, carpenter Adam Bede and squire Captain Arthur Donnithorne, are both in love with the mercurial Hetty Sorrel. There's a further love interest between Adam and beautiful lay preacher Dinah Morris. The setting is a country village in the north of England in the last years of the eighteenth century. The author paints a wonderful landscape of contemporary life as it really was, and excels in the portraits of her characters. Each is flawed, each has their own passions, each is unique, and through this great novel, Eliot put her stamp on literature and on the way we view the vagaries of character, helping us to see people as they really are. This is one of the greatest novels in the English language. First published in 1859, Adam Bede has never been out of print since, which speaks volumes about its timeless quality.
