A comforting picture book that navigates the obstacles and joys of imagination, siblinghood, and togetherness, while celebrating the wisdom of finding a little space for you.
If I had a boat . . .
I could get some peace and quiet.
When the frustrations of being an older sibling feel overwhelming, a young child dreams of sailing far away. They yearn to explore the deep, dark sea and discover an unmapped land where no one will ever find them. But the uncharted ocean can be scary . . . and sometimes you need a little sibling to help unfurl your sails.
If I had a boat . . .
I guess you could come, too.
Brooke Boynton-Hughes offers a gorgeously illustrated journey for any sibling struggling with big feelings, and for parents seeking social-emotional learning tools.
