A World Trip with Friends

A World Trip with Friends

Racoon wants to go down to the sea, so he borrows a boat from Badger. But because one should never go on such a trip alone, Badger is happy to come along. On the way, they pick up Fox, who packs the eggs for their omelette, and Bear and Crow as well. They tumble through rapids, collect wild mushrooms, sweet blackberries, chase the bees away and enjoy a wonderfully lazy day - until homesickness takes hold of them.

In a quiet and light tone, Waechter explains that you don't have to go so far away to experience a fantastic trip around the world.

Philip Waechter lives as an illustrator in Frankfurt am Main. Beltz & Gelberg has published many of his picture books, most recently Ein Tag mit Freunden (A Day with Friends).
