The Adventures of Captain Barnaby Baltic watercolor picture book series set aboard the whaling ship North Star, circa 1800 in Newport Harbor, Rhode Island. Led by the kind-hearted Captain Barnaby, his mischievous dog Bandit, and brave little Merry the Mouse, each story blends nautical adventure with a gentle moral lesson-perfect for bedtime reading and classroom discussion. Each book in the series delivers a self-contained tale filled with warmth, whimsy, and a gentle moral. From rescuing a rival pirate in a tempest to sharing food during a winter freeze, from honoring the wisdom of an old lighthouse keeper to discovering that true treasure lies in friendship, Barnaby's adventures teach children that love, kindness, courage, and community are the brightest stars to follow. The greedy Captain Billy Boulderdash serves as a recurring foil-his bluster and selfishness gradually softened by Barnaby's example. Whether navigating stormy seas or celebrating the Festival of Lanterns, Captain Barnaby Baltic's adventures offer young readers a harbor of hope, heart, and heroism.
