Three friends are setting off on a beach holiday - but when things go wrong, some quick thinking helps save the day.
Three friends in Spring - Dave, Sam and Joe -
with faithful caravan Fran in tow,
were heading north for a holiday,
off to the seashore, far away.
Three friends have an unexpected adventure while on their way to the beach in Caravan Fran. When Fran hits a bump in the road, the friends' dog, Ray, tumbles out and falls in the creek. Sam jumps in to rescue Ray ... then Joe jumps in to rescue Ray AND Sam. Eventually they all make it safely to the seaside - just in time for dinner!
A gorgeously illustrated celebration of holidays and friendship told in rhyming text.

Cheryl Orisini's illustrations are typically gorgeous - a real feast for the eyes. Charming and whimsical, I love her use of colour and detail. I personally have only a moderate interest in machines (having already passed through my toddler years) but even I want to know more just by ogling these beautiful pictures. - Kids Book Review on THE ABC BOOK OF CARS, BOAT, TRAINS AND PLANES

Cheryl Orsini's absolutely divine illustrations are some of my favourite in a picture book this year...her utterly whimsical illustrations are so eye-engaging, it's a delight to turn each page and witness a new surprise. - blog.boomerangbooks.com.au on POM-POM
