Reviews

Dreamy. --Kirkus Reviews The intricate depictions of sea creatures are inspired by science and a delight, while attention to detail brings the wonders of marine biology to life. A fantastic addition to library collections with an inspiring heroine and a window into deep-sea exploration, this is perfect choice for story hours and STEM programs alike. --School Library Journal Savage is careful to balance the dreamy, surreal unknowability of the ocean with the sturdy orderliness of the research boat, though there's a nice detail that blends both and underscores the book's message that science is magic. --Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
