I love dolphins! Is the book a novel or an inspirational essay? I remember one of my favorite books growing up was Karen Hesse's The Music of Dolphins. It was a novel about a girl who was raised by dolphins trying to learn how to live life as a human being. It touches on the complexities of human interaction and emotion, and was quite beautiful, though sad.
Why are dolphins so beautiful and instantly calming to me....I just adore them. This book sounds like the same. Thanks so much for dropping by Beach Vintage.
