Over the Ocean
The book's elegant simplicity lends itself not only to pointing out visual details but also to encouraging a listening child's own speculations. Perfect for one-on-one and small group sharing.-Gay Lynn Van Vleck, Henrico County Library, Glen Allen, VA
"What is over the ocean?" A child on the beach, his or her back to the reader, has many guesses (e.g., "Are there fairs over the ocean? / Are there fun rides?"); each guess is handsomely depicted off in the distance. (Across the Ocean would have been a more accurate title.) Readers who embrace open-endedness should find the book wondrous.
