I just love the illustrations in this book. They are by Loren Long. He takes us on a journey with Toy Boat when he is seperated from his boy and travels out into stormy and chaotic seas. The illustrations in acrylic take the reader along on this journey safely returning to the boy in the end. Remember this book when thinking about the art in childrens' picture books. If I had had a son I would frame a copy of the cover of this book and it would be hanging in his room.
