Book Description: In Ocean Whisper / Sururro del oc ano a boy s fish bowl and whale poster transform into an undersea dream world where he crosses grand aquatic vistas and encounters wondrous ocean creatures. The black and white icons that move down the side margins have an appeal all their own. In shades of gray, these icons effectively show the progression of the story from the whales moving off the boy s bedroom poster through the various stages of falling asleep into a dreamy ocean world and back again. While in the ocean, the boy plays with friendly whales mimicking their moves, even imitating the breaching and spouting whales. Upon awakening, things have changed. The fish in the bedside fishbowl are no longer goldfish but tropical varieties instead. The whales are mysteriously missing from his poster. Was this all just a dream or has dreamtime entered reality? Various colored pencil techniques give the texture of the whale and the little boy s wavelike hair and seaweed vest a touchable quality. Cool shades of blue and hints of aquamarine combine with seashell pinks and corals that eventually incorporate all the colors of the rainbow to capture the essence of this fantasy world. Children create their own stories utilizing their imaginations to the fullest with Ocean Whisper / Sururro del oc ano. Wordless Picture Book. Same lush, museum quality style artwork as in Polar Slumber / Sue o polar (Raven Tree Press, 2004) ISBN 0 9724973 1 5.
