Description: Eva (a girl) and Sam (a cat) book passage on a zeppelin bound for a desert resort to escape the doldrums of winter. The flight is smooth, with plenty of tuna sandwiches to go around, but things go awry when they reach their destination. First, they find insects playing dominoes in their hotel room; then their tour guide, a camel named Cassis, gets them lost in the desert; and at the Crocodile Cafe they find some very troubling items -- themselves -- on tomorrow's menu. But when all is said and done, Sam sums up their adventure best in his postcards to friends: "Having a wonderful time, wish you were here." Tom Pohrt's artistic vision is akin to a traveler's sketchbook, wherein the idiosyncratic story is met with perfect pen-and-ink and watercolor renderings.
