Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Adventure
In the story Moby Dick by Herman Melville the two main characters are Ishimael and Ahab the captain. They both had a conflict they had to over come. The first character is a researcher, Ishimael. One character trait he had was intelligence. This is because he had to lead the crew without them dying. The other trait he had was courage. I think this because he was the only one on that boat for research.

The other character is a captain on the pequod named Ahab. I think one of his character ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Moby Dick
This book was very interesting for me. It had lots of up and down rising actions and lots of conflicts. The story is mainly about Captain Ahab tring to get his revenge on this bellicose whale named Mody Dick. Also at the end, there is a cataclysm that brings everything down and ends the story. I would recommend this book to kids who like adventure or travel stories. There are lots of lesson's from this book. One of the lessons is "Tring to revenge others can cause your death"
