The Paper Boat Story – three best friends, a giraffe, called Gofree, a small dog, Jim, and a rather bossy little girl, Sarah, set sail on the high seas in a biodegradable boat! Overcome setbacks, make interesting, crazy friends and learn a little about their world and themselves; useful if you want to survive on this planet!

The book series is also filled with clever signposts for the adult reader who can initiate comment on rhino poaching;

global warming; parenting and other stuff we should talk about to our children.

The first of many more adventures, so climb aboard, don’t miss the boat!
