"It's ... nice to see a black boy having an ocean adventure in a board book, as representation of BAME children is still rare in books for the under 3s." * BookTrust * "A bold exploration of the ocean, Zoom: Ocean Adventure ... follows Noah as he journeys under the sea to find many splendid creatures of the deep. The bright colours of the underwater world pop, and the die-cut pages of this sturdy board book are great for little ones to get their hands on." -- Emma Dunn and Sarah Mallon * The Scotsman * "These sturdy, informative books, with their intriguing peep-holes and a final fold-out surprise, deliver fascinating facts about space travel and the wonders of the deep with an exciting, colourful and fun-filled flourish." * Lancashire Post * "Die-cuts are a feature of every spread and with their clever placing each one offers a different view depending on whether the page is turned forwards or back ... Characteristic of both, rather longer than average board books are: the surprise pop-up on the penultimate spread, the wealth of visual details in Sam Rennocks and Susanna Rumiz's vibrant illustrations, the die-cut pages." -- Jill Bennett * Red Reading Hub *
