Cuando me visto de marinero (HC-9788426137739) - When I Wore My Sailor Suit

When he puts on his sailor suit, hat, and whistle, the boy in this book is ready for a journey. He imagines himself on a ship, sailing across the sea, in search of treasure. A sailor's life is dangerous, but a sailor must be brave no matter what happens. In this charming story about imagination and adventure, told with Uri Shulevitz's signature playfulness and style, a little boy learns how to be courageous, both on the high seas and at home. The tale is based on a childhood memory from the time when the author/illustrator and his family lived in Warsaw on the eve of World War II.
