Finn is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the adventures of Bobby Vernon, a spirited eight-year-old boy, as he navigates both the joys and challenges of his life after a near-drowning experience at Long Beach. With themes of innocence, friendship, and resilience, the book provides a whimsical yet heartfelt narrative that captures the excitement of childhood amidst the backdrop of the burgeoning film industry. At the start of the story, we meet Bobby and his companions enjoying a day at Long Beach when tragedy strikes. After Bobby is swept away by a powerful wave, his friend Peggy flees in fear, leading to a series of misunderstandings that leave Bobby's mother believing he is lost forever. As Bobby’s story unfolds, we see him rescued by a professional life-saver and later in the company of John Compton, a film actor who comes to play a significant role in his life. The opening chapters set the stage for an exploration of Bobby's adventures in Movieland, accentuated by charming interactions with others and lessons in bravery and faith.
