THE SHIP IN THE WINDOW

Narrator Marwan Salama captures the nautical adventures of Mabel, a mouse who lives a quiet life in a house belonging to a man and his young son. Mabel and the boy watch as the man carefully builds a model ship piece by piece, day after day, in the window of the house. Mabel dreams of being its captain and going on seafaring adventures. Finally, the man takes his prized model out for a sail on a lake. Salama adds the necessary drama to the narration, which along with the lovely musical interludes brings this story to life. Listeners, especially young sailors, will cheer on Mabel as she embarks on a daring sea voyage. M.D. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2025]
