The Somewhat Perillous Sea Voyages of Cealio (With Everything in it!) by Lorie Davison

I love the ocean and before I die I promise myself I will sail her seven seas. I want to feel her great blue beating heart and maybe learn from her one or two of the secrets she whispers to her children when they really listen. In the meantime Cealio the sea lion (with his lookouts Captain Sparrow and the captain’s twin brother Sir Gilbert C. Stormfeather) has grabbed the helm and let the wind take him on a sea voyage across the world’s watery wonderlands.

The Somewhat Perillous Sea Voyage of Cealio will, admittedly, take you to some rather treacherous and desolate shoals. The most perilous of adventures, in my opinion however, can be made quite comfortable and elegant with the proper accoutrements, which I have tried to include in this kit. Here you will find several ship-shape sloops, barrels of chocolate cocoa and rum punch, fish snacks for the lookouts, classically fashionable sailor suits, roomy sea chests, nautically nifty frames to keep pictures of the loved ones left on land, a beautiful siren to sing you to sleep, and a horrible sea monster to wake you up. Oh, and a lobster.
