Media Reviews
When a baby is swept out to the high seas, brave toys band together to bring him home again. A lyrical text recalls iconic Ahlberg works like Peepo, here with added drama and adventure. Chichester Clark's nostalgic pictures perfectly complement the text to create a classic feel. * The Bookseller *
Ahlberg's latest picturebook is about a baby whose old-fashioned pram floats out to sea and who is saved by his toys. Emma Chichester Clark's sunny illustrations of the beach and children playing bring Ahlberg's magic to life. * The Sunday Times *
