A book about a young boy who wakes up and discovers that his room has somehow separated from his house and he is now floating on what appears to be an infinite sea. Thankfully he has his dog to keep him company, because what on earth is he supposed to do?! Rafe has to find ways to keep him and his dog occupied AND keep them fed. Whimsical and intriguing, this book will appeal more to kids (the intended audience) then to adults because there are so many questions that will never get answered (how on earth did his bedroom get detached? is this the great flood?). The illustrations help keep the story going.

This was a sweet little story of a boy who inexplicably gets cast out to sea in his bedroom with his dog. The story centers around his survival and the people he meets along the way. I wish the author had gone into a little more of his backstory in order to build more depth into the character but overall it was a nice story that many young readers will find intriguing.
