Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"A Boy and a Bear in a Boat is a joy to read: slightly surreal, funny, a little bit scary" (The Bookbag)

"Rich in atmosphere and gently humorous, this is a delightful, small-scale but epic adventure" (Julia Eccleshare Love Reading)

"Sometimes scary, sometimes deeply touching, and often very funny indeed" (Helen Mulley Teach Primary)

"The lovingly designed jacket and hardback cover, with its slightly mottled paper and "worn" spine, evokes memories of Mervyn Peake's Letters from a Lost Uncle" (Philip Ardagh Guardian)

"A beautifully tender and enchanting story of a developing friendship between two most unlikely characters, in the most improbable of settings" (Library Mice)

Reseña del editor:

A boy and a bear go to sea, equipped with a suitcase, a comic book and a ukulele. They are only travelling a short distance and it really shouldn't take long. But then their boat encounters 'unforeseeable anomalies'...

Faced with turbulent stormy seas, a terrifying sea monster and the rank remains of The Very Last Sandwich, the odds soon become pitted against our unlikely heroes. Will the Harriet, their trusted vessel, withstand the violent lashings of the salty waves? And will anyone ever answer their message in a bottle?

Brilliantly funny and tender, this beautiful book maps the growth of a truly memorable friendship and tells the story of how, when all becomes lost, the most unexpected joys can be found.
