If you enjoyed the 60s TV show "Flipper" or the "Peter Pan" children's story, then this sequel to Robert Louis Stevenson's pirate tale will appeal - otherwise you will likely be disappointed. The first 100 pages moves at the gentle pace of the ebbing and flowing Thames River. I don't see the purpose of Motion in having imaginary animals in his tale such as the doo-dah (dodo?) and oversize squirrels.
