Work and Win; Noddy Newman on a Cruise

by Oliver Optic

This book follows the journey of Noddy Newman, a young boy with neglected education and poor morals, as he embarks on a cruise that transforms his life. Through various incidents and encounters, Noddy's character undergoes a profound change, moving from vice and indifference to a state of high moral and religious principles. The story highlights the importance of family influence, particularly the virtuous example set by Mollie, the captain's daughter, in shaping Noddy's transformation.
