Camille Andros has made her home in Israel, Utah, Arizona, California, Ohio, Nevada, and, now, Chapel Hill, North Carolina. She has a BA in health science, is an EMT, and danced ballet for 14 years. She is the author of many books for young readers, including The Dress and the Girl. Amy Bates is the illustrator of many books for children, including Gittel’s Journey, Minette’s Feast, and The Dog Who Belonged to No One. She lives in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.“Listening to the voice inside you is the theme of this emotionally daring and poetic work….Bates’s moving, majestic art — rendered in gouache, watercolor and colored pencil — matches these stakes and raises them, showing not just the joy but the anguish.”
The New York Times
Bates’ paintings are lovely, capturing foamy, cresting waves in varying degrees of vigor.
Kirkus Reviews
Prose lines by Andros rock like waves. . .the sea offers endless transformations, which Bates portrays with compelling force.
Publishers Weekly
The text has universal themes of longing for peace and answers to life’s questions. . .Watercolor seascapes are beautiful, with shells, crabs, and reflections in wet sand. A warm-hearted story that many will find solace in.
School Library Journal
“Bates's striking illustrations are rendered in shades of teal and cerulean with warm touches of coral, and her panoramic views of the sky above the shoreline capture light magnificently.”
