Product Description:
A little boy has a toy boat. He made it out of a can, a cork, a orange pencil, and some white cloth. The boy and his boat are inseparable, until one day when the wind pushes the toy boat out into the wide lake. Alone now, the little boat must face fierce waves, a grumpy ferry, a sassy schooner, and a growling speed boat. How the little boat misses the boy! But if he is going to survive, he must figure a way to do it on his own.
Loren Long has a timeless and magical touch. As he did with The Little Engine That Could, he creates a world of toys and children that go right to the soul. Toy Boat will sail into young hearts and stay there.

This is a truly wonderful story. My son received this when he was two years old, a year later and we are STILL reading this book at least once a day. My son is a very active boy but will always sit down and read this book. I'm purchasing two additional copies - one to save for when he's older and another because the very first copy has been read so many times its quite worn!
A must for every little boy!!!

Toy Boat is a simple story enhanced wonderfully by the vibrant illustrations of Loren Long.
My son loved the tale of the boat and was intrigued when it was lost in the churning waters with the big boats. He also loved the conclusion, when the boat returns to the open hands and heart of his young boy. The illustrations take this story to a much higher level. Together, the text and artwork make for pure enchantment.

Toy Boat is a great book for every little boy to own. It is sure to be a favorite of your little guy. It is a wonderful gift to give also. Children need books a lot more than those toys that end up broken and unplayed with. Sign the inside page and he will remember whom it was from forever !
