Riverboat - Tanya Maneki

"Riverboat is a grand selection for story time, but it's also well suited for new readers to try on their own." A Reader's Favorite 5 Star book.

Titus the badger, Finn the falcon, and Shylow the fox are as different as three friends can be. But they all share the same love of sailing. When they spot a lost calf on the distant shore, the three friends paddle over to help find her family.

With no room left on their boat, the friends plan to build a raft big enough for their new traveling companion. But the baby cow won't step hoof onto the deck until her new ride gets a glamorous makeover. And soon, her design requests leave the friends' rescue plan spinning out of control. As their quest drifts into dangerous waters, the friends must work together to bring the calf home safe before they are all swept overboard.

The River Raft is a beautifully illustrated children's picture book. If you and your child like courageous animals, light-hearted jokes, and imaginative adventures, then you'll both love this charming story.
