Four Point Four Stars

Dune is constantly moving, full of energy, and charting his own unique path. This delightful book captures how Dune the manta ray's mind works in the ever-shifting ocean currents.  

The ADHD experience is brought out through sea creatures who must stay in motion to survive. The story beautifully reframes the ADHD traits as natural strengths. 

For the children with ADHD it validates the children’s inner world and it also helps in building deep empathy in the peers of children with ADHD and teaches readers to support and celebrate each other’s differences.

The book is both an educational tool and brings in a sense of belonging.

Thank you for e-Arc Netgalley.
