Surfing is an exciting pastime with a lingo and a look all of its own--and it becomes even more fun when three radical rhinos take to the waves. This hilarious look at the sport will delight readers of every age. The brilliant watercolor illustrations bring alive the thrill of shredding mondo waves, carving up the face, and finally, riding the last wave into bedtime. Young children will especially love hearing this book read aloud and looking at the colorful and way-cool pictures.
I bought this book as sort of a joke, because it sounded so typically California sufer dude. And it is, but it is also awesome. Children love the colorful pictures and rhythmic language. Adults never get tired of reading it to the kids because it is so funny. This book now forms the centerpiece of my standard baby gift for new parents (along with a beach pail, swimsuit, or other appropriately aquatic-themed item). Everyone who's received one has told me they and their children love it.
Way fun, way cool, and as the Hawaiians say: Talks story

Julie Mammano's book is entertaining and enjoyable. Her vivid (and detailed) illustrations alone would make the book worthwhile, but add in the portrayal of rhinos, and the piece is even better. It's perfect for a gift or for reading aloud--kids love it.
An exuberant and colorful story for kids of all ages
