An enchanting tale of haunting places and mystical bargains, sumptuously illustrated by Levi Pinfold.
Washed clean in his pool, we fall under his rule
Away from what is, for we are now his.

Rezension:
"Gorgeously illustrated, Paradise Sands is a modern fairy-tale. [...] It's mysterious and each page feels heavy with underlying messages to decode. While the story isn't particularly long - it will fly by at bedtime - children will get lost in the ghostly tale and cinematic illustrations. 8/10 Prudence Wade 'Children's Book of the Week', the Independent, syndicated in Northern Echo, Dundee Courier, East Anglian Daily Times, Eastern Daily Press, and Dorset Living
