Close. He's a fictional character in a popular book of the same name.
Unsurprisingly, the story was filmed, and the 1936 movie with Freddie
Bartolomew and a great cast is (or was...) quite famous. Bartolomew
became identified with the part (or it with him) although he was in
Captains Courageous the next year to similar high acclaim.
