The Stargazer

Summary:

A small boat drifts on the vast sea. On board are Maarten and his cat Max, and their neighbor Roos, the shipmate. They are on their way to Cat Island, where a meteor shower will take place - whoever sees the stars fall may make a wish.

That's the beginning of a mini-odyssey: after a festive stay on Cat Island, they sail to Circus Island where Roos wants to perform, and then they embark on Maarten's wish.

Beatrijs Oerlemans knows how to make this fantastic story, both for reading aloud and for independent reading, land in your heart. Peter-Paul Rauwerda brings to life the journey of Maarten, Max, and Roos across the endless sea with full-page illustrations.
