Review # 1 was written on 2018-07-30 00:00:00 Tomek Zachadzki Tonight both kids wanted to hear the story. Amos is a mouse and Boris is a whale. They make unlikely friends and yet each is perfectly suited to help the other out of a life threatening situation. I got teary-eyed reading this. It was very touching. The art work almost looked like water colors and maybe it was. It fit in with the water theme perfectly. There were many blues and grays like the ocean. I also loved the word choices. The kids repeated some of the beautiful phrases used in the story and he had some great vocabulary words in there also. This was a joy to read and the kids enjoyed it too. They gave it 5 stars.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-03-05 00:00:00 Richard Leach This is a lovely picture book about an unusual friendship and giving and receiving help. The illustrations are lovely, the plot is good, the language doesn't talk down to children and like all good stories I think this is enjoyable for any age. I was surprised how similar the later published The Snail and The Whale is to this story.
