The Wanderer
The Wanderer | Peter Van den Ende
19 posts | 10 read | 1 to read
Without a word, van den Ende presents one little paper boat's journey across the ocean, past reefs and between icebergs, through schools of fish, swaying water plants, and terrifying sea monsters. The little boat is all alone, and while its aloneness gives it the chance to wonder at the fairy-tale world above and below the waves uninterrupted, that also means it must save itself when it storms. And so it does.

The Wanderer, by Peter van den Ende, illustrator (2020)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Premise: A wordless graphic novel that follows a paper boat on its adventures at sea.

Review: The illustrations in this are absolutely stunning, which is a good thing considering they carry the whole weight of the story. I was hoping it would be a bit more than it was, but it‘s beautiful nonetheless

I think this book could be great to open your students imaginations about the world and you could use this book for them to describe their journeys and hardships through illustrations rather than words.

This book shows a paper boats journey across the ocean and its faces of wonders and dangers. The illustrations and beautiful, and this wordless picturebook does a great job teaching about risks and being brave.

This is a book with no words. Instead, it allows the reader to create their own words in their head with the help of the pictures. The reader follows a little boat through its journey across the ocean.
This book is great for young readers as well as older readers to help the students use their imagination with the story. In the classroom, students can each create their own words to the pages, then the class puts them all together to make a story.
