Original, beautiful, entertaining, and thoroughly 'kid friendly', A Wave of Stars will prove to be an extraordinary and enduringly popular addition to family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school, and community library picture book collections.---<b>Midwest Book Review</b><br><br>Although the tale begins abruptly, and there are no source notes, the story has a dreamy, folktale-like feeling with a unique perspective on life in the sea and the way the human experience differs from that of marine life.---<b>Bayviews- Association of Children's Librarians of Northern California</b><br><br>The story has a dreamy, folktale-like feeling with a unique perspective on life in the sea and the way the human experience differs from that of marine life.---<b>Bayviews</b><br><br>STARRED REVIEW. An old octopus weaves a tale of mystery and magic for a gathering of young sea creatures who get caught up in the spell. The book's beautiful full-color spreads and panels are interspersed with black-and-white line drawings as a white seal and turtle succumb to the legend of the moon rainbow, embarking on a journey that sends them out of the waves and onto dry land. The book is available in both English and Spanish language formats.---<b>ForeWord Reviews</b><br><br>Brown and Wimmer have crafted a magnificent new fairy tale for us to enjoy. WImmer's whimsical illustrations are enchanting and Mimbi and Kipo's story are as good as other classics such as The Little Mermaid, which it will remind you of<br><br>The illustrations are lovely with calming blues and greens. There are bright pops of color in the fish and coral, and the art style is soft and wavy. The coolest thing about the artwork is the border where the colored illustration turns into a pencil sketch. It's really clever and a beautiful design. The gorgeous art work along with the bewitching story makes this book particularly sweet and enjoyable!---<b>Books for MKs </b><br><br>Two sea creature friends accidentally look at a moonbow and become human in this book that reads like a Scandinavian fairy tale. Though a kind fisherman sees them crying and helps them swim under a restorative wave of stars, they retain fond memories of "the day they were children." Wimmer's drenched-blue art trails into wispy black-and-white pencil sketches.---- <b>8 Picture Books That Let Young Minds Wonder and Wander on Their Own, The New York Times.</b><br>
