A detailed, beautifully illustrated wordless picture book that follows a boy’s experiences with a camera discovered at the sea shore. A 2006 New York Times Best Illustrated Book of the Year. A 2006 Publishers Weekly Book of the Year.

A detailed, beautifully illustrated wordless picture book that follows a boy’s experiences with a camera discovered at the sea shore. As the nameless boy is playing on the sand, an old-fashioned box camera washes up. He gets the film inside developed and discovers an exciting, unexpected undersea world.

When a young boy discovers a camera on the beach and develops the film, he finds with his microscope many layers of pictures within the photographs.

Publisher's Note
While scouring the beach for flotsam--anything floating that has been washed ashore--a young science enthusiast stumbles upon an old underwater camera that contains secrets from beneath the sea.

Industry Reviews
"In Wiesner's much-honored style, the paintings are cinematic, coolly restrained and deliberate, beguiling in their sibylline images and limned with symbolic allusions. An invitation not to be resisted."
(08/01/2006)

"Masterfully altering the pace with panel sequences and full-bleed spreads, [Wiesner] fills every inch of the pages with intricate, imaginative watercolor details. New details swim into focus with every rereading of this immensely satisfying excursion."
(07/24/2006)

"Wiesner's detailed watercolors make the absurd wonderfully believable, his graphic storytelling sense is sure and swift, and children will surely love FLOTSAM from start to finish."
(11/12/2006)
