Description: Noddy Newman, an orphan without moral education as a ward of the Grant family and under tender care of Bertha Grant, runs away with the circus, and later ships out on a schooner bound for Hawaii. With the influence of filial devotion from the captain's daughter, Mollie, Noddy develops a gentle and Christian character.
