Publisher Description:
Sometimes being a boat is full of adventures and it's nothing but smooth sailing on the high seas, but sometimes arguing passengers can take you off course. When you run aground, will their teamwork give you the strength to make it through? Offbeat and imaginative, James Kwan gives us a glimpse of what it's like to not only be a boat, but what it is to be human in both gentle and rough waters.
Perfect for life's transitions, this book tackles taking on change and indecision with grace, humor, and heart. It's a reassuring reminder to stay the course through all kinds of stormy weather. Ahoy, ahoy
