Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreSchool-Grade 2–As a kookaburra looks on, a little girl and her mother sit on an Australian beach waiting for a pod of dolphins to appear. Finally, the animals arrive, and mother and daughter put on their snorkels and flippers and join them in the water. Simple prose accompanies bright, full-page acrylic paintings. The dolphins and the ocean setting are lovingly and beautifully depicted, showing an idyllic world where animals and humans communicate without words. An author's note provides a full page of facts about these mammals. In addition to relating an experience that may not be familiar to many children, this peaceful picture book could accompany lessons on marine life or social studies.–Jane Barrer, Washington Square Village Creative Steps, New York City

From Booklist

PreS. Swimming with Dolphins brings children face-to-face with ocean life. Davis' paintings steal the show in this picture book, narrated by a child who, with her mother, slips on flippers and a mask and joins a school of dolphins. Sentences of just a few words per page create a lovely rhythm when read together: "Together we glide. We dive and surface . . . We spin and turn." Large, luminous, almost photorealistic paintings show the girl and the gleaming dolphins swimming and twirling side by side. Simple, elegant, and visually stunning, this will thrill children with its close-up view of a girl and her wild animal friends.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wouldn't You Want to Swim with Dolphins?, April 24, 2005
I hope it is more of a dream but this is a nice simple story about a mother and daughter who swim with dolphins. An interesting story.

3.0 out of 5 stars Book was torn, August 10, 2009
It was a great book that my daughter (2 yrs old) loved. She wanted a book about dolphins and we had a hard time fining one at our library. We ordered this one. We are happy with the book and its beautiful pages; however, the first page of the book was crumpled and torn. Very frustrating. The book was shipped soundly so it was something that happened in the factory.
