The brilliant illustrations for 'The Best Boat' have been done by Arief Putra, who lives in Jogjakarta, Indonesia.

It's really easy to make a paper boat, so why don't you have a go.
All you need is a piece of paper... and some instructions.
There are lots of videos on the internet that show you how to do it, but I've found one that I think is particularly good. Here's a link to it.
You can make your paper boat with coloured paper like Jin and her dad do in the story, or you can colour them in afterwards using wax crayons. Wax crayons help to make the boat waterproof.
