Ahoy, mateys! Let's hop a ship and sail away! On a hot summer day, a wish transforms an urban backyard into a place of breezy high-seas adventure. As our bold Captain and Skipper ride the salty waves, they encounter a beastly sea monster, buried treasure, a scurvy pirate crew, lovely mermaids and more. The creative pair who brought you the acclaimed I Wished for a Unicorn offer up another celebration of the boundless distances a childhood wish can travel. With rich, spirited illustrations and sparkling rhymes that beg to be repeated, A Sea-Wishing Day is a spellbinding voyage into the imagination. Anchors aweigh!
