From School Library Journal
PreSchool-K Two children build a boat, picnic, find a treasure map and sail to a pirates' island. They get chased by pirates and saved by a whale, and end up back at their beach. Once there, they decide to build a home out of the boat and stay forever. The simple rhyming text is illustrated with cheerful cartoons predominated by sea green and blue watercolor washes the whole effectively conjuring up seaside memories. There are plenty of picture books on the beach and ocean, etc., and this one is not unique, but it has a nice feel about it. A satisfying imaginative adventure, perfect for summer storytimes. Judith Constantinides, formerly at East Baton Rouge Parish Main Library, LA
