Industry Reviews

"Dick Schmidt has crafted a charming story of a relationship between a boy and a dolphin. Spanning more than a decade and set against the backdrop of a fictitious Caribbean island, this wonderful story explores the connection between humankind and the natural world and how it can enrich both. "This inspiring story reminds us that the world would be a better place if we could all find a way to live in harmony. "I have known Dick for several years. As a businessman and philanthropist he has demonstrated his deep commitment to conservation. This touching story is another example of his passion for nature and the oceans." -Philippe Cousteau "Dick Schmidt's first novel is simply first rate. Fascinating, heartwarming, and absorbing from beginning to end. The characters are finely drawn, the plot ever captivating, and reading this novel, you are completely transported into Toby's world, surrounded by the beauty of the Bahamas and Southeast Asia." -Doris Kearns Goodwin
