Ella & Monkey at Sea

(3) PS Ella and Monkey are traveling with Mama on a big ship to America. Ella expresses her feelings about the voyage through her toy: "Monkey doesn't want to get on a ship...or move away forever." Then, when a storm hits the ship, Ella and Monkey find a creative way to bring sunshine back. Boon's emotive illustrations capture the anxiety children experience during big change.
