John Burningham

PAPERBACKIn Stock

On a day trip to the seaside, Mom and Dad settle down in their deck chairs to snooze the day away, while for Shirley, it's a chance to set sail for uncharted seas. "Come away from the water, Shirley," caution her parents. But Shirley has already set out on an adventure, where she encounters danger, pirates, and buried treasure! The book uses a brilliant juxtaposition of both sides of the story: the parents' mundane reality and Shirley's imaginative, high-seas adventure.
