Illustrated in full color. Alex, Joel, and Zachariah Jr. get abigsurprise when their lazy tube ride down the river takes them all the way out to sea. That's just the beginning of this picture-book fantasy that combines witty storytelling, humorous dialogue, and sparkling artwork.
My son loved this book when he was little (he is now 20!), and I am sad to see that it is not available new, as I would have loved to give it as a gift this Christmas. It's a perfect read-to book, because the illustrations are marvelous.
Very Original Little Boy Adventure Story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
My youngest son is 20 now, but if I had seen this book when he was little, I'd have gotten it for him in a flash. The little boys in this story are very true to life in a way not often found in the average children's book. They act before they think, they don't say much, and they communicate with a punch in the arm.The story moves swiftly with just enough scariness to engage a little boy. It's a fun, smart story that will entertain the adult reader, too.
