The floating boulder

Livre

Arnaud de Buchy | Sonia Grandame | Joachim Hérissé

One morning, Alarick tells Moko that there is no more food in the village so they must head far off into the sea to go fishing. They take a small boat and head out until nightfall when they anchor in the shadow of a great boulder of ice to protect them from the wind. When they wake up they don’t recognize their surroundings. Everything has changed! The ice boulder is drifting along the waves surrounded by dozens of others like it and is dragging their boat along with it. Alarick is scared and tells Moko that they have hit an iceberg and that it is dangerous, but Moko is confident that the ocean has simply provided them with a helping hand to guide them to where there will be more fish for them to bring back to the village.
