Blue

James Devita is a talented writer and Actor! He has written a great childrens book!

This book sits up there along with the imaginative storyline of Harry Potter. The incredible detail allows the reader to visualize as well as understand the story. The storyline keeps you wanting to read more and more. The concept seemed unusual to me at first (a boy turning into a marlin...) but once I read it, I loved it! I've shared with friends, young and old. This is a great book for younger readers!

I read to my two sons, ages 7 and 9, every night before bedtime and sometimes it can be hard to find books that meet both of their expectations. When we picked up "BLUE," both boys were skeptical. A boy turning into a marlin was not a particularly inviting premise. However, it did not take long before the three of us sat captivated by the descriptive detail, brilliant imagination and amazing storyline. The author took the time to dwell on the details vividly and beautifully without losing sight of the plot. It's really about inspiring kids to be what they want to be, even if it is so out of the ordinary as becoming non-human. I recommend it as a book to read to your children or have them read it themselves. Start to finish, it's great - we could not bear it to end! ENJOY!

An excellent book for young readers. The idea is new and refreshing in a market currently saturated with Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings. The subject matter will be understood by younger kids, but is definately interesting enough to keep pre-teens involved in the events as they unfold. There is some beautiful, realistic imagery coupled with a fantastical storyline. The characters are fun and recognizable. Most older readers and parents will be able to identify with families trying to communicate, but struggling to figure out exactly what that means. Bravo.
