Inhaltsangabe

Billy and the Secret Ship is a joyful tribute to the loved ones in our lives who give us the gift to empower ourselves. For Billy, it is his Grandpa. Throughout the years at bedtime, Billy’s Grandpa spins tales while carving out a wooden ship. Each new ship launches Billy and his Grandpa on their perilous, daring adventures through the high seas. Over the years Billy always fell asleep before he could experience the full story. But in the morning, he always woke to his Grandpa’s finished ship. Then, one night Billy wakes to find a half carved ship and rises to the challenge of using the skills and creativity Grandpa taught him to finish the ship and navigate through the continuing adventure on his own. For Billy and all those who have gained more than they could ever lose from those they love, this is a powerful legacy.INTENDED AUDIENCE:Aimed at children 4-8, Billy and the Secret Ship is meant to be read to very young children and as a stand alone book for young readers. In both cases the initial read opens up a topic that leads to discussions between parents and children. The book itself can be read on several levels, depending on the readiness and perception of whoever is receiving it; as pure adventure, as a journey of a child’s empowerment, as a gentle affirmation of how someone faces transiting from this world, and of course all three.
