What happens when you
build a boat for the fairies?
Will they come?
Her name is Fairy
Boat, and she is the loving creation of Chelsea, Gram and Grandpa.
They launch her at the creek in Fairy Woods and she begins to wind her
way downstream. But wait! A goose chases her into Big River, beyond
their reach! Fairy Boat now faces many dangers. Can the fairies help?
Will Chelsea ever see her again?
Learn about the
life of a river as it travels towards the ocean and the influences of
nature and man on our waterways. A fun map is included in the book.
The story of Fairy
Boat parallels life's journeys, with rough waters and unexpected events
at each turn. Yet, woven throughout are wondrous, even magical moments,
waiting to inspire us. (Look for fairies hiding on many of the pages.)
There may be more
than Nature at work here!
"Kane's
blurred, pastel illustrations, best shared during quiet lap sits, will
draw children in with their magical details and whimsy."
