細膩絕美畫風,勾勒男孩尋找夢想國度的動人旅程
在很遙遠遙遠的彼方,鯨魚和海蜇在天空翱翔,小鳥和城堡在海裡悠游。那是大海和天空的交界處,那是 Finn 的爺爺告訴他的夢想國度。雖然 Finn 的爺爺已經過世了,但傍海而居的 Finn每每望著窗外的海水,總想起爺爺說的這段故事。
這是個適合出海的日子。Finn 決定親手做一艘船,航向那個海天交界的夢想國度。
或許,那個國度確實如爺爺所編織的一般美好,又或許,那個美好國度只存在於爺爺的腦海裡和Finn 的想望中。

From the creators of The Night Gardener, comes a stunning new picture book about a young boy who sets sail to find a place his grandfather told him about... the spot where the ocean meets the sky.
It’s a good day for sailing.
Finn lives by the sea and the sea lives by him. Every time he looks out his window it’s a constant reminder of the stories his grandfather told him about the place where the ocean meets the sky. Where whales and jellyfish soar and birds and castles float.
Finn’s grandfather is gone now but Finn knows the perfect way to honor him. He’ll build his own ship and sail out to find this magical place himself!
And when he arrives, maybe, just maybe, he’ll find something he didn’t know he was looking for.
