Sold out

A wordless picture book told through 30 oil paintings by Julia Allisson Cost.

The story follows a little girl who finds a boat in a field of wildflowers, carries it home, and sets off into a world of imagination and change. Every page is painted from life, with details drawn from the artist’s own world—including glimpses of Hadley Pottery in the kitchen and picnic scenes.

A quiet, richly painted story about friendship, play, and letting go. Ready to be read your own way.

Book: 11.25 inch x 11.25 inch x .375 inch book. The cover is a cloth-textured hardcover. 44 pages. Oil painting illustrations on every page.
