Trade Review
A tender story, cheerfully illustrated, about unconventional people and the freedom to be yourself. * The Sunday Times *
I really like the way that David Almond writes. His descriptions are mesmerising. * Books Up North *
Featured in a piece with David Almond showing readers where he works in WRD Magazine. * WRD *
David Almond's glowing prose conjures a magical world, building a picture of a special girl w h o is very much a creature of the sea. […] Beatrice Alemagna's beautiful illustrations complement the text perfectly, evoking the sea, the shore, both the everyday and the mysterious: "Annie Lumsden, seal girl, fish girl, dolphin girl...”. The story and the pictures will haunt the reader long after the covers of the book are closed. * The School Librarian *
“Annie Lumsden, The Girl From The Sea is tender and enchanting […] An unusual story beautifully told and presented for children of 9+. * Newbury Today *
