MY REVIEW
A charming story about the power of magic, kindness and cooperation.
As the sea stars are left ashore after a storm, Max and Myrtle immediately go to rescue them. With the help of other animals -dolphins, owls, ducks, birds and otters-, they successfully get the sea stars back into the ocean.
The story is suitable to show the powerful effects of teamwork and develop cooperation skills from an early age.
The rhyming text makes the reading aloud the ideal lullaby for a cozy bedtime story.
Full of details, the bright illustrations will take little sea-lovers into a diving tour under water. Children will love the double-page spreads which show the depth of the ocean in a festival of colors.
A story to read and discover the wonders of the sea together!
