A boat trip shared by five friends

A cow, donkey, sheep, pig, and tiny mouse set out together for a row in the bay, with one question framing their outing: who sank the boat? The simple premise gives the story a clear point of curiosity to follow as the animals share the trip. Its farm-animal cast and seaside setting keep the focus on a small group adventure, while the question at its center gives young listeners something to consider as the story unfolds.

Book overview

A charmingly funny read-aloud that asks an important question: "Who sank the boat?"

Beside the sea, there once lived a cow, a donkey, a sheep, a pig, and a tiny little mouse. They were good friends, and one warm, sunny morning, for no particular reason, they decided to go for a row in the bay. Do you know who sank the boat?

"The idea is funny, the pictures are splendid, and the easy text is just right for the very young."--The New Yorker

"A bright, brisk tale, simply told, illustrated by cheerful, comical pictures."--The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
