Did you hear about Baltic, the Polish dog who was adrift on an ice floe in the Baltic Sea for several days? The seaman who pulled him to safety aboard his ship adopted him, and Baltic is now part of the crew. No one knows how he ended up in this terrible situation, but fortunately the story has a happy ending for everyone involved!
Ouviram falar do Baltic, o cão polonês que foi encontrado perdido, flutuando no Mar Báltico durante dias? Ele foi resgatado por um marinheiro que o puxou a bordo do seu barco, e ele agora faz parte da equipe. Ninguém sabe como o cão foi parar nessa situação terrível, mas ainda bem esta estória tem um final feliz para todos!
Wonderful illustration and story. Love how you posed the dog.

Beautiful, like how you've the image and that poor fellows expression.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! What a good ending to a horrible situation...I agree with Eric's comment on how you positioned him adrift on that little iceberg.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, poor little doggy!
ReplyDeleteI can envision your creating and illustrating an entire children's book telling how you imagine Baltic got on the ice floe. Or maybe telling several stories that could be possible and encouraging the reader to imagine his or her own account of the story ... You could do it better than anyone else I think!
