We have officially reached the point in the year when we seem to spend more time with the water than without, a perfect time for a proper sailing lesson. While on the surface this reads like a step by step guide to navigating the waters by boat, a more important lesson lies just below the surface, one of journeys and travels, lives and choices. Brilliant, fresh, printerly images buoy in a palette that is a true ode to the deep blue with a love letter to red tucked neatly inside.
Sweetly succinct text and a boldly graphic design translate beautifully to the younger crowd, while poetic reflections are best spent on us all, at any age. Many water-based reads have been flooding our bedtime stack lately and this one went swimmingly. Send your little matey off to sleep with the knowledge that all our journeys are going somewhere and let them drift off and dream of tomorrow’s voyage.
This copy lives in our home library, kindly gifted to us by PubSpotlight & Post Wave Publishing. Hoping it will soon be available through our local library systems and through yours, too!
