When Laura Maw was a child, her favorite activities were going to the ocean and picking out another stack of books from the library. She loved reading from a very young age and could never seem to satisfy her craving for another new adventure, another new imagination landscape. Writing is a passion that seemed to come naturally with her love of reading. She too wanted to be able to help someone through a bad day, or to have a unique and thrilling experience on a good day, through the written communication of a story. She has a very vivid imagination that often takes her on wondrous adventures in her dreams. In fact, the idea for Bubba’s Balloon came to her in the form of a very funny dream. She woke up laughing and felt that it was a story that must be shared with others. The character of Ollie was even developed through daydreaming about Bubba’s adventures.

My Review

This is a lovely story. Beautiful illustrations that a child will love to look at while listening to this lovely story. I love the story of how a dolphin, seagull work to help free Ollie and the Orca and then become friends to go and adventure together. The only bad thing about this book is that I want to read more adventures of Ollie and Bubba. I think young children will love this story.
