Another adventure for the duo and friends...

In this story, Ebb becomes the whipping boy (or dog) when she is falsely accused of eating the picnic before the others could have any. Ebb goes off to sulk in the rowing boat that unfortunately starts drifting out to sea. Eventually the truth is discovered (it's the gulls all along!!) and Ebb, now safely back on terra firma, is forgiven.

What a delightful story.

My daughter is a huge fan for Ebb & Flo the series and I was not disappointed with the books. Beautifully illustrated and with a simple story. They are a must for any fan of the show.

Ebb & Flo and the Greedy Gulls

Ebb is a dog and Flo, a girl of 6-9 years old is her owner. They picnic at the beach, and seagulls steal their lunch. Flo blames Ebb, and Ebb, who is innocent, goes to sulk in their boat. A storm drives the boat out to sea and it crashes on some rocks. When Flo recovers Ebb, she apologizes for falsely accusing her dog. Pastel illustrations capture the mood and delight the eye with textures that will make one feel he or she is at the beach. Young readers will identify with Ebb, if they have been falsely accused, and it will spark memories of joyful trips to the shore.
