True Tall Tales of Stormalong: Sailor of the Seven Seas
By Harold W. Felton
Illustration by Joan Sandin
Prentice-Hall Inc., 1968
Today's vintage children's book is a folk tale,
True Tall Tales of Stormalong: Sailor of the Seven Seas
. The main character, Alfred Bulltop Stormalong (Stormy), had to deliver himself as a baby and was born with a full set of teeth. His crib was a whaleboat parked in the bay.
"For a time sharks were his only playmates, and he swam and wrestled with them. He was always careful not to hurt them." Gotta love tall tales.
