Book Reviews of An Island in the Sun
Book Review: A Beautiful Ode to Wonder and Adventure
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this for my son when he turned 2 and from the first reading he was completely captivated and inspired. The book is short, beautiful, and even arresting in its aspirational, idyllic, and nostalgic quality.
After we started reading this book, my son started to ask me to tell him other stories of adventures and voyages he might take! The book probably doesn't last more than a few minutes, but I still heartily recommend it for the little voyager in all of us.
Summary of An Island in the Sun
In a spectacular seascape, a young boy sails for a distant island where he finds a special friend waiting for him. Who could it be? Children will delight in pointing out the animals and objects that the little boy spies along his journey. Award-winning artist Nicoletta Ceccoli's radiant illustrations spill off the pages with their dramatic ocean scenes and vibrant tropical hues.Literature Books
