Down on the shore, by the edge of the sea, a little boy makes himself a little
boat from an old piece of polystyrene, with a stick for a mast and a string
tail sail. He plays with it all day long, singing. “We are unsinkable, my boat
and me!” But when he turns his back, a gust of wind catches the little boat and
takes it out to sea…This is the story of the little boat’s voyage across the
ocean – its many adventures and encounters, above and below the water – until
it comes to land once more in the hands of another child.
