Like many explorers of oceans, Henry and Angus were cast up on an island with no way to escape. But good explorers are prepared for everything, and these two proved more than equal to the dangers they met.

Henry the Explorer
by Mark Taylor
illustrated by Graham Booth


Picture coming soon! On the night of the blizzard, Henry and Angus, read an exciting book about exploring. And the next morning Henry assembled his equipment for the trip: lunch and flags for claiming all that he planned to discover.

Exploring is hard work, and sometimes, although explorers do not get lost, they are sometimes they are not quite sure which way to go. All of which makes Henry's exploring worth reading about.

32 pages, 9" x 9.75", Ages 3-8
Hardcover $18.95. Available winter 2010.
