It is a fun story to read with children because it is excting and it has some entertaining pictures. Caruso, you need to forget all of the humans and learn to be with the fish. Second to best book I ever read. Really good. I really suggest you read it. The book is about siblings who find a water horse and raise it until he is big enough to go to a lake, and then to the ocean. In the 1930s in rural scotland, a young girl and her brother find and hatch the egg of a mythical creature. As loved as any household pet, caring for 'Crusoe' pulls the family together as they look for ways to protect and hide the animal, eventually releasing it into Loch Ness. Parts of Eragon and shades of Free Willy, this lovely tale is about love and family and letting go. recommend for boys and girls, 3rd-5th or 6th grade. no reviews | add a review
