<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Whenever Burt Dow, who lives in a snug little house on the Maine coast, sets out to sea, his pet giggling gull goes along. But this time, it will take all his might and some plain old ingenuity to save him and the gull from a raging storm.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Robert McCloskey (1914-2003) wrote and illustrated some of the most honored and enduring children's books ever published. He grew up in Hamilton, Ohio, and spent time in Boston, New York, and ultimately Maine, where he and his wife raised their two daughters. The first ever two-time Caldecott Medal winner, for <i>Make Way for Ducklings </i>and <i>Time of Wonder</i>, McCloskey was also awarded Caldecott Honors for <i>Blueberries for Sal, One Morning in Maine, </i>and <i>Journey Cake, Ho!</i> by Ruth Sawyer. He was declared a Living Legend by the Library of Congress in 2000. You can see some of his best-loved characters immortalized as statues in Boston's Public Garden and Lentil Park in Hamilton, Ohio.
