Review Quotes

★"Improbably special, offering an opportunity to bask in the bond between caregiver and child. Hearing the titular phrase, 'I believe in you, ' repeated between parent and child sea serpents as they swim around Loch Ness is endearing and clever...Lovely, sweet, and warmly offbeat." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review
