The Big Big Sea
Jennifer Eachus
Drawn by the mesmeric pull of the moonlit sea, a small girl and her mother share a wondrous, unforgettable time as they frolic in the waves, make footprints in the sand at the water's edge and sit together savouring the awesome natural beauty of the universe itself. The restrained spareness of the text contrasts perfectly with the magical, soft-focus, hauntingly beautiful yet dramatic illustrations.
