| book description |

Sail away on a whimsical and heartfelt adventure of unexpected friendship from Loren Long, the #1 New York Times-bestselling creator of The Yellow Bus -- featuring a stunning gatefold reveal! Long ago, there was a small seaside village. Just offshore, there was an island. Wary of the island, the villagers trade stories warning of its dangers. But something about the island calls to the new boy in town . . . One day, the boy rows his little boat to the island and finds no danger--just the whirling wind and the steady lapping of the ocean's waves. The island seems peaceful to the boy. But also lonely, like him. So he visits again and again. And he soon discovers that he and the island are even more the same than he could have ever imagined. The modern-day classic storytelling of Chris Van Allsburg meets Where the Wild Things Are in this beautifully- illustrated, imaginative new picture book from beloved creator Loren Long.
