Content
A poetic and humorous story for early readers, full of wit and imagination.Max is supposed to tidy his room but he doesn’t have time for that: he needs to travel! He and his friend Beaver are going on a big trip. They meet Flango, the feisty flamenco, then the elegant hippo Nile Kawallo and finally the busy-sloth Fauli who’s always on the go. Together, they set course for the ocean. But what does the ocean look like? “Large, blue and wet,” says Max. What Fauli discovers soon after is certainly large, blue and wet, but have the friends really already reached the ocean...?
