Description

Discover the storyboards of the adventurous "Farmer Boris Goes to Sea," the second installment in the wildly popular and award-winning picture book series by Ted van Lieshout and Philip Hopman. These Farmer Boris storyboards make reading aloud to a group of children even more fun and easy. While the children in the classroom gaze in amazement at the large pictures, the reader can read aloud the text printed on the back of each picture. A handy and interactive way to bring the story to life. "Farmer Boris Goes to Sea" was voted Picture Book of the Year in 2015.

Farmer Boris is on vacation. Farmer Boris is going to the seaside. He packs his little suitcase. What is Farmer Boris taking with him? Well, a whole lot. Too much for his suitcase, even. So Farmer Boris decides to load up the tractor. Now he can carry much more! Still not enough? Farmer Boris has a solution. It's going to be a fantastic vacation! The 13 sturdy, separate A3 plates fit in a standard story box (not included), but the storyteller can also simply hold them themselves.

Since 2012, Ted van Lieshout and Philip Hopman have been working tirelessly on their series of books about Farmer Boris, Sam, Berend, and the farm. The two make a truly exceptional duo: Ted received the Theo Thijssen Prize in 2009, and Philip Hopman won the Max Velthuijs Prize in 2022, each for their awe-inspiring oeuvre. They have created a bright, cheerful, and above all, warm world around Farmer Boris. Young children will want to look at the illustrations on the large storyboards again and again—and their parents will enjoy it too.
