I just finished reading Dove by Robin Lee Graham. Go read it yourself. It is an inspiring story that brings dreams down to earth.
Let me climb up onto my tall bike and cast some judgment upon thee. The writing is prosaic, but the simplicity is almost soothing. There are no flashy plot devices or interesting thematic ideas. It is a simple account of the circumnavigation of Dove. While it does not make for challenging reading, it is still engaging, simply by the merits of it's subject matter. Denotation is enough for this piece, intended connotations are basically absent, or evaded me completely.
I would recommend reading it, but it isn't a book that you can read over and over again.
