“They sailed away, for a year and a day, To the land where the Bong-tree grows

Here we are again with the Friday Face Off meme created by Books by Proxy . This is a great opportunity to feature some of your favourite book covers. The rules are fairly simple each week, following a predetermined theme (list below) choose a book, compare a couple of the different covers available for that particular book and choose your favourite. Future week’s themes are listed below. This week’s theme:
Boats “The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea, in a beautiful pea green boat…”
The first book I thought of for this one was a book that I’ve recently been seeing reviews for: The Ship by Antonia Honeywell:
My favourite cover is the first – the spooky, misty waters – I’m not sure that this really is representative of the book but I like the eerie feel.

Which is your favourite?
Next week – Planet
Future themes:
21/07/2017 – Planet “Any planet is ‘Earth’ to those who live on it”
