The boy loved the boat and each day he would let the boat out on the lake, never letting go of its string. Though Toy Boat enjoyed this, he wondered what it would be like to sail free like the big boats did. Then one day, a storm came up and the boy lost hold of the string and Toy Boat was tossed out to sea. When the storm ends, Toy Boat finds himself lost on the ocean. He asks the larger boats for help, but they have no time for him. Soon he is water-logged and lonely, wishing he were back with the little boy. Then a humble little fishing boat comes along and helps Toy Boat set sail once more. He sails on and on till he finds his way back to the little boy he loves - and who loves him back. From then on, every so often, the little boy lets go of the string, but the boat always comes back because it knows where it wants to be. Loren Long's lush, vibrant paintings bring the little toy boat and his exciting adventures to life. Your young readers and listeners will cheer Toy Boat along, even as they identify with his desire to go exploring on his own - so long as he can return to the people he loves! Ages 4-8. 40pp.
