The Sea View Hotel #[nn]

A quiet seaside retreat becomes an unexpected adventure for young Hubert in this charming 1978 tale, written and illustrated by James Stevenson. As the only child among a sea of adults, Hubert finds an unlikely mentor in the hotel’s handyman, Alf, whose curiosity about nature and knack for building a glider lead to a thrilling, windborne flight that stirs up the peace of the Sea View Hotel. The story, drawn with gentle precision by Stevenson, captures a fleeting moment of wonder and connection between boy and man, leaving behind the hope of return.
