Description

“But wait a moment – where is Eddie?” Suddenly, I realized his absence. I ran to the bow, and then to the other end, the stern, up and down the stairs, but I couldn’t find him anywhere. The sky had started to clear, and the day was breaking... where could Eddie be? “A-hoy!” I suddenly heard a shout from above me. I looked up and saw him. He was standing on the "Upper Deck" above the bridge, where all the navigation antennas were. With his right hand, he pointed to the horizon. “Third Officer Andy, put the entire crew on battle stations, a warship is approaching us at high speed, we are in danger!” I looked to the horizon and from afar I spotted a large vessel rapidly approaching us. Could it really be a warship in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean? I wondered.

The book Beyond the Horizon is a maritime encyclopedia for children, the first of its kind, focused on shipping and the sea. Andy and Eddie set sail on an exciting journey around the world.

As children follow their adventures, they learn about maritime concepts and familiarize themselves with the differences between various vessels, marine traffic, ports, and more. This nautical glossary reveals the secrets of the maritime world.

The book also includes many additional pieces of information; it is a visual journey into a new world, a world that makes up over two-thirds of our planet. Kids can also watch videos and explore other elements recommended on the pages of the book that capture the power of the maritime world and the oceans.

This book is for you if...

  • ...your child is thirsty for knowledge about the world of the sea, ships, and the great adventures of sailors.
  • ...you are looking for a book that combines the enjoyment of a story with the provision of useful information in an interactive and understandable way.
  • ...you want to familiarize your child with the importance of shipping, especially in a country like Greece, through a journey that will spark their curiosity.
  • ...you are searching for a book that opens new horizons and suggests further exploration through videos and other sources!

Why This Book Is Special:

  • Visual Journey: Levy Itay's illustrations bring the seas and ships to life, making reading an immersive experience.
  • Interactive Learning: Encourages children to watch videos and discover more information on websites, making the experience more vivid.
  • Nautical Glossary: Includes a special glossary that reveals the secrets of nautical terminology to children.
  • Greek Interest: Ideal for children in Greece, a country with a vast maritime tradition and activity.

This book with a hardcover and its 48 pages, measuring 23x28 cm, is a true treasure of knowledge and adventure. Written by Elazari Adi and illustrated by Levy Itay, it transports young readers to the world of the sea. The excellent translation into Greek was done by Petroula Gavriilidou, and it is published by Papadopoulos.
