Sail Away

What book could be anything but perfect with David McPhail as the illustrator? His colorful, sublime illustrations give life to the text and create a world full of humor and delight.

Sailing with an Imagination

Anyone who has been around boats knows that there is a whole separate language for boats. This book shows a little boy who can speak boat talk and who dreams of being the captain of a ship. The salty words paint a picture of an adventure--one which the illustrator joyfully interprets.This book is a definite must for anyone in the sailing community, young or old!
