Media Reviews

It's a gorgeous, wry and heart-warming you-can-do-anything picture book. -- Imogen Russell Williams * 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. -- Sara Keating * 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. * The Irish Independent, Children's Books of the Year *
