Amos & Boris

By William Steig, Translated into Western Armenian by Karenn Chutjian Presti Amos the mouse and Boris the whale are a devoted pair of friends with nothing at all in common, except good hearts and a willingness to help their fellow mammal. They meet after Amos sets out to sail the sea and finds himself in extreme need of rescue. And there will come a day, long after Boris has gone back to a life at sea and Amos has gone back to life on dry land, when the tiny mouse must find a way to rescue the great whale. Amos & Boris was a 1971 New York Times Book Review Best Illustrated Book of the Year, Notable Children's Book of the Year, and Outstanding Book of the Year. William Steig is a beloved author due to his beautiful use of language, touching choices of subject matter, and award-winning, endearing illustrations. His family allowed Karenn Chutjian Presti to translate it into Western Armenian because she was enamored with the rich use of language and the charming storyline. William Stei
