APPEALS TO: SOME

Maybe Moby DIck was trying to make friends with Captain Ahab and the whole thing was just a big misunderstanding?

You don’t really need to have an understanding of Herman Melville’s novel to enjoy a book about being misunderstood. But if you have an ELA teacher or reader i your life who loves the classic, they might appreciate this wry re-look at Moby’s motivations.
