Jack has a toy boat his uncle made for him, and he can't wait to sail it. But stormy weather delays the maiden voyage. When the sun reappears, Jack shoves off his vessel, but are the seas still too rough? Bright and summery paper-collage and gouache illustrations simply and artfully capture the boy's excitement and anticipation of a seaside adventure.
