Once, many years ago,
there was a baby,
in his pram,
with his sisters
and their sandwiches and lemonade
and toys . . .

A lyrical and epic story about a baby and a trio of toys, and their adventure on the high seas. Beautifully told by master storyteller Allan Ahlberg and stunningly illustrated by Emma Chichester Clark in their first standalone picture-book collaboration.
