Synopsis
"Believing is Seeing" In the tradition of such favorite classics as Gulliver's Travels and Journey to the Center of the Earth, Voyage of the Basset takes the reader on a fantastical journey of discovery. Through richly detailed full-color paintings and line drawings, magical kingdoms emerge from a sea of dreams. Cassandra Aisling, who is nine years and eleven months old, doesn't care "a jot" about what sensible people think. She likes strange, mysterious, and magical things. So when her world gets tumbled upside down, she boards the H.M.S. Basset, ready to explore the landscape of her imagination. Pledging allegiance to the Basset's motto, "Credendo do Vides...Believing is Seeing," Cassandra, her skeptical older sister Miranda, and their father, Professor Algernon Aisling, set out in search of the ancient legends. From the flickering flight of fairies and the mermaids' siren songs to a labyrinth-bound Minotaur and a fire-breathing dragon, the Aisling family witnesses firsthand the wonder of mythological worlds. In this lavishly illustrated edition, Cassandra's adventures intertwine with her father's scientific scribblings to present both new tales and the essence of classical myths. From the two voices, readers learn the power of imagination, the importance of believing in oneself, the value of family, and the need for creative, cooperative problem-solving. The story of a magical journey and the exquisite fantasy artwork will appeal to young and old alike.

    Great art! Get it while you can.

    The artwork of this book is just gorgeous, This will be the 3rd time I have purchased this book I believe. I think one of them is living with a sibling. one was lost during innumerable moves and now this one will be with me for my new apartment. you know how some people have big art books for their coffee tables? This qualifies as such plus it's a fun read.

    Imaginations other Place!

    Because James Christensen was a genius, and everything he did reflects as much, it would be a cold heart to not get a smile or a laugh out loud when going thru this book!
