| Summary | "The Voyage of the Hoppergrass" by Edmund Lester Pearson is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of boys led by Sam Edwards, along with their eccentric Captain Bannister, as they embark on a sailing adventure on the "Hoppergrass," encountering a blend of humor, pirates, and unexpected challenges along the way. At the start of the novel, the boys are excited to set sail from the wharf, their spirits buoyed by the promise of adventure. They gather supplies, observe their quirky captain’s antics, and enjoy a comical mishap as they chase after a dropped watermelon. As they navigate the river and set out, the crew consists of Sam, Ed Mason, and Jimmy Toppan, with the captain being a colorful character filled with tall tales and nautical wisdom. The story quickly introduces the potential for adventure with the mention of various uninhabited islands they might explore, setting the stage for a mix of camaraderie and daring exploits against the backdrop of their youthful imaginations and natural curiosity about the world around them.
