WHOOSH, WHOOSH, WHOOSH, WHOOSH! Kokala was so startled that he GULPED and GULPED and GULPED enough seawater to make himself fat and round and prickly! The frightened puffer tumbled right into...sleeping Hihimanu!

REVIEW
I think this sequel to 'Baby Honu's Incredible Journey' is her best work to date...Yee's well-structured plot skillfully integrates repetition at every turn, culminating in a fittingly predictable, satisfying ending. Yee also has a great knack for humanizing her colorful images of marine life.
