19 Sep / Flotsam by David Wiesner

FlotsamWinner of the 2007 Caldecott Medal (and oh so very well-deserved!), Wiesner creates yet another masterpiece of gorgeous wonder – without a single word!

A young boy out for a day on the beach discovers an old-style box camera on the shore (part of the eponymous ‘flotsam’ that washes up). He takes the film to be developed pronto (his impatient one-hour of waiting speak a thousand words), and finds himself having a wondrous adventure with creatures from under (and over) the sea. You’ll love the poignant ending … and how the story continues …
