This is so much fun! :D

I love the main story and the story within the story, and having the story within the story have multiple authors makes the tale even more intriguing!

And that’s impressive how well John can read when he’s still so young! I think I was pretty good at reading at a pretty young age, but I wasn’t quite as good as John at it and certainly wasn’t as fast at reading! 📚📖📚

Excellent storytelling, and I’m looking forward to finding out how the story continues! 💯

Yeah. The fun thing about this is I have to write like a six-year-old kid. I can be naive about sailing a vessel alone around the world. And I don’t have to research everything meticulously.

There is a gentleness to this piece that reminds me of classic children’s literature. It feels nostalgic!
