My name is Sunny & my story is on da money!

Surviving the Wild: Sunny the Shark by Remy Lai

July 29, 2022 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I adored the Surviving the Wild first two books about a koala and elephant. And Surviving the Wild: Sunny the Shark is another cute story of Surviving the Wild series. This time we explore how one shark makes friends, learns about humans and their trash. And while Sunny is getting in and out of trouble, we learn about the type of shark Sunny is, the fish that are helpful to them, and yes, our human trash and the problems it causes. The pacing of this […]

The Whale Who Swam Through Time: A Two-Hundred-Year Journey in the Artic by Alex Boersma and Nick Pyenson

January 19, 2022 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I have read other stories about whales who have lived for centuries, as I am sure you have, too. But what makes The Whale Who Swam Through Time: A Two-Hundred-Year Journey in the Artic so wonderful is the illustrations. The story is nice, not overly pushy but gets the point across. You know this is a story not just about a whale that could live up to over 200 years-old, but an environmental book as well.  Yet, when it comes to the art, that is […]

Finding the right book but maybe wrong time

Mermaid Kenzie: Protector of the Deeps by Charlotte Watson Sherman

January 18, 2022 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I am probably the only person who is not going to be or is jumping up and down and shouting the praises of Mermaid Kenzie: Protector of the Deeps. It is not because I disliked Charlotte Watson Sherman’s picture book, it is just that something was off for me. The story is sweet: a young girl named Kenzie wants to be swim in the ocean, say hello to the animals and be a mermaid. But one day she cannot swim freely as there is more […]
