David Dean expertly evokes the quiet serenity of a quaint little Cornish harbour 421 miles from the home of thirteen-year-old Martin where he and his younger brother Charlie will travel to catch a glimpse of the beautiful dolphin that regularly visits!
David’s gorgeous bright seaside colour palette with rich yellow sand and traditional red and white lighthouse, combined with the intimacy of the little marina all subtly contribute to the secure familiarity of this little scene, cleverly concealing a heart-wrenching twist in the tale that comes completely unexpectedly from that perfect mid-blue summer sky.
Charlie and Me 421 Miles from Home is out now from Piccadilly Press!
