Critics Review

“Michael Foreman has a flair for turning a book into a special occasion.”

“Michael Foreman has a flair for turning a book into a special occasion.” * Quentin Blake * “An important book” * The School Librarian * “No less an impressive statement for being a work of art … Foreman’s magical blues and yellows and the indefinite lines of his drawing underline the symbolic message … A quietly disturbing book this, which I fancy children will help their parents to understand.” * The Junior Bookshelf * “Foreman’s characteristically spacious composition and subtly graded washes are in close harmony with his theme of the vastness and fragility of the natural world.” * TLS * “Breathtaking watercolour illustrations weave a touching beachside tale.” * Baby Magazine *
