In the Deep, penned by Lucy Sage, is an absolutely magnificent children's book that I consider to be one of the most magical I've ever read!


From the instant I began reading, I was entirely enchanted by the author's remarkable talent. The narrative is so mesmerising that it rendered me momentarily speechless, as I became fully absorbed in its magic and brilliance. Every element shines, from the engaging story to the beautiful illustrations, making it a treasure I am delighted to have discovered!


Rooted in the lore of the lost city of Atlantis, the tale is bewitching, possessing a spellbinding allure steeped in mystery and intrigue. The writing exhibits a lyrical essence akin to a nautical tune, revealing Sage’s intrinsic talent for both rhyme and poetic artistry. The language used is sophisticated yet accessible, avoiding the pitfalls of oversimplification that often plague children's literature. This exceptional aspect greatly enhances the quality of the book, making it feel like a journey back to a time when storytelling was rich and immersive.
 

All in all, I really can't emphasise enough how much I admire this work; it rightfully earns all of the praise it garners. The wonder it holds has inspired me to the point where I plan to get some extra copies to share with others so that even more people can enjoy the magic within its pages!
