Swept out to sea in a little boat, the woodland creatures journey across the Pacific Ocean all the way to Japan. While their courage and ingenuity are tested at every turn, Sammy and Rodney are met by good fortune and are helped by new friends. They return home with a broadened worldview and a deeper understanding of animal and human interactions. This new picture book of the beloved Stanley Park Tale series promotes awareness and sensitivity to the needs of others.
