It’s a gorgeous, wry and heart-warming “you-can-do-anything”
picture book.
*The Guardian*
Haughton uses a distinct and refined colour palette, against which
the crabs’ large eyes pop in perpetual surprise. It is a visual
treat that also doubles as an accessible parable about anxiety.
*The Irish Times*
Haughton’s distinctive bold artwork offers a fresh, contemporary
take on themes of independence and building courage
*The Bookseller, Children’s Previews*
Magical underwater revelment with a sprinkle of seashore style.
*The Booksniffer*
A charming tale for young children about being brave.
