The Antlered Ship by Eric Fan

An inquisitive fox sets off on a seafaring voyage with a crew of deer and pigeons in this enchanting tale of friendship and adventure. Marco the fox has a lot of questions, like: how deep does the sun go when it sinks into the sea? And why do birds have such lizardy feet? But none of the other foxes share his curiosity. So when a magnificent ship adorned with antlers and with a deer for a captain arrives at the dock looking for a crew, Marco volunteers, hoping to find foxes who are as inquisitive as he is that can answer his questions. The crew finds adventure and intrigue on their journey. And, at last, Marco finds the answer to his most important question of all: What’s the best way to find a friend you can talk to?
‘A thoughtful, philosophical tale which beautifully captures the natural world, it also features 2018’s most motley crew of pirates’  * The Observer *
'An idyllic offering, The Antlered Ships is an unfurling tale of friendship coupled with the inherent power of nature.’  * Picture Book Blogger *
