Rusty's Dream Comes True

Rusty's father just read "Swallows and Amazons" to his son for the third time.


Rusty sure would love to have his very own boat!  He is going to go home and make a map of the Happy River and plan an adventure of his own, just like in the story.
All he needs now is a boat!

Back home...
Rusty's father has something he wants to give to his son.


Mr. Hardy made this model boat with his father many years ago and would like Rusty to have it as his very own.
Rusty thanks his father and hopes someday he will have a real boat.

A few days later...
 Rusty's father has a HUGE surprise for his son!  Someone listed this boat in the classified section of The Hittyville Gazette and just wanted his boat to have a good home.


Rusty cannot believe his good luck and his wonderful father!
He will name his boat Swallow...after the boat in his favorite book and start planning his first adventure right away!

A special thank you to Yukari...my online friend...who recommended the magical book, "Swallows and Amazons" to me.  You were right, Yukari...I loved it!
