Aprašymas

Sail away on a whimsical and heartfelt adventure of unexpected friendship from Loren Long, the #1 New York Times-bestselling author-illustrator of The Yellow Bus.

Long ago, there was a small seaside village. Just offshore, there was an island.

Wary of the island, the villagers trade stories warning of its dangers. It's haunted, they say. And full of skulls and bones and snakes. But something about the island calls to the new boy in town . . .

One day, the boy rows his little boat to the island and finds no danger. Just the whirling wind and the steady lapping of the ocean's waves. The island seems peaceful to the boy. And lonely, like him. So he visits again and again. And soon discovers that he and the island are even more the same than he could have ever imagined.

Featuring a breathtaking gatefold reveal, this beautifully illustrated, imaginative new picture book from Loren Long is a captivating read-aloud perfect for fans of Where the Wild Things Are and What Do You Do With an Idea?
