![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And wow, I do feel myself so much and so completely immersed in and enveloped by the the author's presented narrative that with Hello Ocean I can almost literally see, feel, touch and smell the ocean myself (and can actually also and well imagine being that little girl, experiencing the waves, the sun, the scent of the salt wind, the touch of the sand, the squishy sea kelp on my bare skin). ![]() Poetically, lyrically, evocatively a young girl delightfully and glowingly textually describes how the ocean is her oldest and dearest friend, how she loves the sights, the sounds, the touch, the smells and tastes of the sea. Yes indeed, Hello Ocean (penned by Pam Muñoz Ryan and graced with and by Mark Estrella’s glowing and luminous accompnying illustrations) truly and utterly delightfully present an opulent magical feast for the senses, and definitely for ALL of the senses. ![]()
