Review
The comic book style frames in this picture book support the text beautifully and make for a great read aloud and read along book about a seal on the streets of Halifax at night ... The story uses simple words and clear descriptors of the seal, the night, people and Halifax, making it an easy to read book. The detailed images and comic book style layout will catch the attention of older readers as well. (Amanda Forbes Canadian Teacher Magazine (Vancouver, BC) 2017-05-31)
Description
One snowy night in downtown Halifax, Nova Scotia, a strange figure peeks out from behind a parked car. A woman screams! So begins a lost harbour seal's adventure through the steep streets of the sleepy winter city. Soon Constable and Officer are on the case, and if they work together, they just might be able to help the harbour seal find his way back home.
Celebrated children's author and illustrator Doretta Groenendyk brings the true story of Halifax's famous winter 2015 flip-slippery visitor to life with colorful paintings and simple text. A Harbour Seal in Halifax is destined to become a family favorite.
