The toy boat Hardback - 2007

de Randall De Sève

As he did with "The Little Engine That Could," artist Loren Long creates a world of toys and children that go right to the soul, in a story written by Randall de Sve of a toy boat that becomes separated from the boy he loves.

Resumen

A little boy has a toy boat. He made it out of a can, a cork, a yellow pencil, and some white cloth. The boy and his boat are inseparable, until one day when the wind pushes the toy boat out into the wide lake. Alone now, the little boat must face fierce waves, a grumpy ferry, a sassy schooner, and a growling speed boat. How the little boat misses the boy! But if he is going to survive, he must figure a way to do it on his own.

Loren Long has a timeless and magical touch. As he did with The Little Engine That Could, he creates a world of toys and children that go right to the soul. Toy Boat will sail into young hearts and stay there.
