Praise for Wider Than the Sea: A heartwarming, hopeful read with accessibility and understanding at its core, I know this book will be very important to a lot of children who need to see themselves reflected in the stories they read. * Ruth Ennis, Books Ireland Magazine *
It’s a beautiful depiction of childhood and angst … * Connacht Tribune *
Molloy’s verses deftly create a short but striking story on coping with anxiety and the bond between siblings. A dyslexia-friendly story with emotive illustrations from Ermos capturing key moments throughout. * The Irish Examiner *
Serena Molloy’s vivid prose doesn’t shy away from the darker parts of some children’s lives, yet shows that hope can be found through the support of friends and family. – Méabh McDonnell, Charlie Byrne’s Bookshop, Galway * The Times *
Praise for Wider Than the Sea: Molloy’s powerful story about a girl who feels broken, and the dolphin who makes her feel complete, is enhanced by Ermos’ illustrations. This uplifting tale celebrates self-acceptance, inclusivity and readers of all abilities. * Editor’s Choice, Reading Matters, Children’s Books Ireland *
