(1) K-3 A boy and his caregiver fold a paper boat, then he pretends to sail it outside. After a downpour, the boat floats for real--into a sewer grate. Once comforted at home, the boy soon ventures out again with a paper airplane, this time embracing the moment his creation is set free. With a limited palette, each wordless scene is full of reflection, shadow, and texture.
