Sea Elf — Joanne Ryder

"A child reader [is] transformed into a sea otter and taken on an imaginative day trip....Ryder's poetically imagistic text is powerfully partnered by Rothman's robust...artwork, which depicts aspects of a sea otter's day in its natural habitat....This experience is potent, informative, and transporting....Lovely for nature studies or for a flight of fantasy into the natural world."--Booklist.
