The visual presentation of this book is its greatest strength. I liked the mix of illustrations and photographs as well as the variations in text size and color.

I wonder if the way the present-day walk along the beach and the information about Bryan's life are intermingled will be confusing for kids.

Stunning illustrations and visually appealing presentation. Ashley Bryan lovers will revel in the lush descriptions of Bryan himself and of his craft. I don't know how it might read for kids who didn't already know and respect his work.
