Who Sank the Boat

Who sank the boat? Was it the cow or the donkey or the sheep with her knitting? Surely it wasn't the tiny little mouse? Winner of the 1983 Australian Picture Book of the Year Award and NZ's Gaelyn Gordon Award for a best-loved book, this wonderfully illustrated book is designed for sharing aloud - and will make children giggle as they guess which animal spoilt a day's rowing by sinking the boat. Ages 2+. Author Biography Pamela Allen is a phenomenon in the world of children's books.
