Garbage Gulls

"On a hot summer day, two brothers prowling the strip mall parking lot find a parked car as a big as a whale and climb in. Armed with a bag full of fries, the boys lure seagulls to them, seeking adventure and longing to see the ocean. Together, they can go anywhere their imaginations can take them. The fastest way there is through the clouds. Lyrical text by Dorson Plourde and expressive, saturated art by Isabella Fassler combine in this evocative ode to the freedom of summer. Perfectly capturing the mood of a languid summer day, Garbage Gulls tells the story of so many children in North America, who don't spend their summers at camps, beaches or the boardwalk -- and who instead take flight through their own imaginations."--
