Colorful, sea-tinted pages and free-floating compositions pack a lot of action onto each page, along with surprising rhymes rocking in a four-beat wave-rhythm. Fun to read aloud, this graphic novel will inspire beginners to plunge into reading on their own.--Kirkus "3/15/25"
Through the book's blend of humor and expressive illustrations, young readers will enjoy the antics of these playful ocean creatures. Short rhyming phrases contribute to the book's easy-to-follow flow, creating a catchy rhythm.
