β¦ Synopsis
The unforgettable story of a young boy's love for a girl and his extraordinary freindship with a dolphin.
"A magnificent story, beautifully told, about a boy and his loyalties... The beautiful, exciting episodes of undersea swimming and spearfishing, the happy cavorting of boy and dolphin, and the tragic resolution of the story are all equally \ convincing and moving."
Publisher's Weekly
"BROTHERS OF THE SEA is a beautifully written and moving story of a boy's conflicting loyalties, a story that captivates the reader by its very simplicity. The author's pen is so visual that one finds himself hanging on tightly as he flies through the water astride the dolphin. Indeed, that is the ultimate merit of the book: the reader becomes completely involved in circumstances that are as believable as they are vividly portrayed."
Best Sellers
"No summary of this novel can catch its special tenderness and understandingβits articulation, in words, of feelings that can only be expressed as action by the young hero.... Paul, his adventures with a dolphin, his growing love for Danielle, his futile attempts to stave off the tragedy that awaits his father, are described with simplicity and love by Mr. Sherman."
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
"Author Sherman... gently moves the reader through this touching tale. It's poignant and well-done."
