“And it was good to be a little island. A part of the world and a world of its own.“
“And it was good to be a little island. A part of the world and a world of its own.“
Blurb- Image of cat asking fish to explain how the little island is apart of the land then to have faith in what he doesn't know- a good lesson that sometimes we need to have trust.
Published in 1947. A wonderfully written book about faith and the connections that everything in natures has with one another. The illustrations in this story were bright and showed the island in a way that made you want to visit it! The reflections in the water are something that stood out to me
This book has was made in 1946. I like the colors shown in the book; the blues and greens throughout the book show different colors of nature.
Aside from the illustrations, I like the layout of the story itself. The book is set up with illustration and poems about the island.
“Winter came
and the snow fell softly
like a great quiet secret in the night
cold and still.“
I enjoy this quote because of the descriptive language and imagery used.
