Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Lord Dolphin" by Harriet A. Cheever is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story is narrated by Lord Dolphin, a character who is a dolphin and introduces readers to his underwater world while sharing his adventures and thoughts about humans and their ways. The book delves into themes of curiosity, freedom, and the wonders of the ocean, intending to capture the imagination of young readers. The opening of "Lord Dolphin" sets the stage for a lively introduction to its main character, Lord Dolphin himself. He begins by recounting his origins in the Mediterranean Sea, describing his physical characteristics and expressing pride in his noble title, which he believes reflects the respect dolphins have historically received from humans. Lord Dolphin's charming narrative captures the joy and struggles of being a dolphin—his love for music, his adventures in the ocean, and his interactions with the human world. The whimsical and conversational tone invites children to learn about marine life through the eyes of a friendly and animated dolphin who ultimately seeks to share his story and the joys of life beneath the waves.
