Three By the Sea Summary

Three By the Sea by Mini Grey

Three By the Sea Reviews

Mini Grey's beautifully illustrated story improves with each reading as the stranger's mission and legacy becomes more intriguing - is he good or bad? A lovely book to open up discussion with little ones who like a bith of depth to their bedtime reading * Daily Mail *
This is yet more proof of Grey's knack for telling stories with beautiful emotional depth. A reassuring read * Junior *
A quirky, life-affirming tale with a central message about the value of friendship and the importance of thinking of others. But what really makes this book is the beautiful, remarkably evocative illustrations. I found myself genuinely longing to share the characters' existence in their idyllic seaside home * Guardian *
