Five friends set out on a boat. Who's to blame when it sinks?
A cow, donkey, sheep, pig, and mouse embark on a sunny boat ride. As they enjoy the day, an unexpected mishap occurs—someone sinks the boat! Can you guess who? This delightful tale invites young readers to explore friendship and curiosity, with a playful twist that keeps them guessing until the end. Join these charming animals on their whimsical adventure and discover the surprising answer to the question: Who sank the boat?
A charmingly funny read-aloud that asks an important question: “Who sank the boat?” Beside the sea, there once lived a cow, a donkey, a sheep, a pig, and a tiny little mouse. They were good friends, and one warm, sunny morning, for no particular reason, they decided to go for a row in the bay. Do you know who sank the boat? “The idea is funny, the pictures are splendid, and the easy text is just right for the very young.”–The New Yorker “A bright, brisk tale, simply told, illustrated by cheerful, comical pictures.”–The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
