Recenzijas

"A charming retelling on an old folk tale There is delightful sense of animation and movement in the pictures. A warm and engaging story to share with young children."





  * School Librarian * "An absolutely brilliant tale about the dangers of being greedy and the illustrations are excellent in depicting the anger of the fish and its a lovely book to share and read aloud. The illustrations and art work by Jessica Souhami are really bright and bold and the silvery sparkle of the fish is fantastic." * Let them be Small * "A wonderful independent and read-aloud story, which children will most definitely love, while learning a lesson or two about the perils of wanting too much!" * Just Imagine * "Spellbinding." * Achuka * "Expressive collage artwork will engage readers...A pleasingly solid retelling." * Kirkus * "Jessica Souhami has taken the traditional story of the fisherman and his increasingly greedy wife and turned it into something even more magical, tossing in some silver sparkles along the way... the tale works so well as a read aloud and those stylish collage illustrations for which Souhami is renowned are just SO superbly expressive." -- Jill Bennett * Red Reading Hub * "with stunning artwork and clever use of repetition this story is ideal for reading aloud with EYFS groups." -- Tom Tolkien * School Reading List: November 2022 book club picks * "The story is a joy to read aloud with the repetitive phrases making it perfect for joining in with. Children will also enjoy seeing the fishs rising fury reflected in the colour and texture of the sea whilst the couple seem blissfully oblivious of the effect they are having on it. The illustrations are full of colour and life, making the book instantly appealing and a welcome addition to any bookshelf." * Through The Bookshelf *
