Is the Seawater Always Blue? by @shabanamuhajir #ReviewShare #Children #NonFiction

Is the Seawater Always Blue?Is the Seawater Always Blue? by Shabana Dastageer Muhajir
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I was very excited to read this book. I know at least 10 of our book club members who have been to Langkawi and I wanted to know this author’s perspective. Unfortunately, very little of Langkawi, Malaysia is mentioned.

But the title is about the sea? Correct. In that case, why focus on a particular place? If the author wasn’t going to highlight the destination, why mention it? This is really bugged me throughout the book especially when you know that you are selling your book on an international platform.

Other than that, the book was good and was very detailed in explaining the different colours of the seas. Useful knowledge for a child and it is broken down in simple sentences. The boys also learn about other seas around the world briefly. Recommended.
