Illustrated by
Terry Fan
&
Eric Fan.
Inquisitive fox Marco joins a ship's wayward deer and pigeon crew, and they battle a fearsome sea, hunger, and pirates. The Fan brothers create mood through rich textures and a soft color palette, giving the book a nostalgic feel. The journey turns out to be the destination, made even better in the company of curious--in every sense of the word--companions.
