Reader’s Review
Stunning pictures and poetic text combine to create an intriguing book about the mysteries of the giant squid. This is a book worth reading and discussing with your children (who may not be attracted to it at first glance), because the wonders of the giant squid are truly magnificent and open the door to many discussions about the wisdom, power, and beauty of the Creator.
To look out for
- Violence: The squid is described as having sharp teeth and giant jaws that rip into skin and hold on tight. The baby squid is almost eaten by a shark with sharp teeth. The overall mood created by the dark colours and suspenseful writing may scare younger children.
