The Faraway Island, Hardback Book

The Faraway Island Hardback

Illustrated by Jude Daly

Hardback

Item not Available

Description

When a sailor can't bear life on ship any more, he jumps overboard and swims to a big barren rock.

There he cares for a half-drowned cockerel and plants rice, hiding away when a boat arrives.

The sailors are amazed to see rice growing and keep coming back, leaving plants and game-birds, until the island bursts with tropical fruit and wildlife.

But soon the Queen of Portugal hears about it and demands to meet the person responsible.
