Young Leo sets off to discover the world—the five peninsulas near his seaside home. His mother approves, knowing Leo will finally meet the eccentric friends of his father who disappeared at sea. After all, Leo’s old enough to be “the captain of his own boat” as the song he likes to sing goes. The story is followed by 11 folk-infused melodies plus the narration of the story.
