That damn crab snitching aint very cool of him especially that that big ahh fish was NOT playin about his hat either
2.5 stars, rounded up because this is objectively good: I like the palette and the texture, and the interplay between protagonist's unreliable narration and the plot of the panels, particularly the movement between pages, is really effective. I dig the open but ominous ending. But it didn't really get me, yanno? Maybe because the dark humor, however effective, doesn't have a vibe that resonates with me. (I don't like water settings.) Maybe it's so tightly written as to feel like a gimmick. Whatever the reason, liked it but don't know that I'll remember it.
Love it. And less violence than "I want my hat back." I could see asking kids a lot of questions about this during a storytime. Can't wait to use it.
Great children's book, simple story, great artistry.

Adorable and weirdly dark at the same time.
The illustrations and the colours give an underwater feel.
