I loved this book. It was well written and its illustrations were breathtaking. The picture continues on the front to the back of the cover as well as the story began before the publishing.
Munzo does a brilliant job with her descriptions in a poetic and informative way. She also uses great descriptions. It also uses words that mean the same as the meaning. She does a great job using detailed verbs.
The illustrations however make the story. They are so life like. I would love to read more books illustrated by Astrella. He does an amazing job. He uses shadows and sunlight to bring his illustrations to life. Each one is rich with details and illusionistic texture. The pictures are so real one might actually think they’re there.
This would be a great book for a read aloud as well as a free read. This book would be a good choice to read if they ever went on a beach trip or had a class discussion about the sea shore. I recommended this book to teachers.
Publishing: 2001
