Summary/Abstract |
Captain Cook, the Great Explorer, is a legend who lives on to this day. There are many places scattered all over the Pacific Ocean, which are named after this brave explorer - the Cook Islands and the Cook Straits in the South Pacific Ocean are only two of those. This brave adventurer went out into the wild unknown seas and discovered large parts of the vast Pacific Ocean, paving the way for future journeys. Captain James Cook is still regarded as one of the most successful explorers of the modern world. Join the curious and playful Digby and his big sister Hester as they make their way through the odds and ends at Mr Rummage's stall at Knick-Knack Market. Discover the wonderful little objects they pick up and enjoy the stories about the great people they belong to. This book tells the factual biography of the great maritime explorer Captain Cook within an exciting story. Brings his epic voyages of discovery into a modern setting. Encourages involvement and fun through drama and dressing-up.
