Hello, kids. My name’s Ishmael and I want to tell you the story of a very stubborn captain and a white whale!
I love the ocean, so I decide to be a sailor. I go to the port and meet Queequeg, an Indian whale hunter. The next day, we find a job on a beautiful, huge, whaling boat.
The captain of the boat is Ahab. He is tall and strong. He is a very angry man.
He has got a large scar on his face.
He has got a peg leg that is made from the bone of a whale.
He lost his leg in a battle against Moby Dick, a dangerous, huge white whale.
Ahab is a very stubborn man and his goal is to capture Moby Dick.
He promises to give a gold coin to the first man who sees the whale.

Big animals can eat big pieces of plastic.
Birds often eat small pieces of plastic and die.
