Description

The stunning wordless story of a brave little boat's voyage.


A little boat sets out to sea and begins its voyage toward home. To get there it must travel across many strange, beautiful oceanscapes, full of fantastic creatures and deadly monsters, swept by terrifying storms and sailed by mysterious ships. Can the Wanderer pick a path through all these perils to a safe harbour?

This beautifully illustrated, wordless picture book is a gateway into a captivating marine fantasy world.

Reviews

'Wonderfully strange and strangely wonderful... an epic dream' - Shaun Tan, author of The Arrival

Author description

Peter Van den Ende finds inspiration for his ideas in his own life. He transforms the things he admires, experiences and desires into a highly imaginative alternative version of reality in his detailed drawings. He loves connotation and symbolism, and although he has an explanation for everything he draws, he prefers his readers to come up with their own interpretations. His stories are intended to amaze people of all ages.
