What They're Saying

Critics Review

“Yulo distills a difficult, relatable concept—even the small and seemingly unseen have a light to shine—into a digestible story for young readers. The illustrations deftly use background color to distinguish between the white expanse of the aquarium and the solid black darkness of Kraken’s habitat … Concise and effective storytelling brings the invisible to light.” —Kirkus“The technicolor images of people and fishcontrast with the black background and evoke the feeling of a darkened aquarium, and the varied perspectives effectively convey Coral’s feelings of smallness.” —BCCB
