Review
"...glorious fantasy that any small child will delight in." -- London Free Press
“… provides whimsical tales of a cat in search of a mysterious vagabond uncle, inviting all to enjoy.” -- The Children’s Bookwatch
From the Publisher
The three picture books collected in this single volume tell the story of Zoom, a cat in search of his mysterious, seafaring Uncle Roy. His search leads him to his uncle's friend Maria, a woman whose house holds not only the ocean (as we discover in Zoom at Sea, which The Toronto Star called "the most completely satisfying Canadian picture book ever produced"), but also, somewhere up near the attic, the North Pole (as we learn in Zoom Away), and, behind the books in the library, Egypt and its Nile (Zoom Upstream). Tim Wynne-Jones' gentle, whimsical stories are enhanced by the enchanting black-and-white illustrations, by Eric Beddows, that complement each page of text. A lasting treasure for the family library. With a Preface by James Mustich, Jr.
