"Friends are simply strangers we have yet to meet; the endearing beast and a message will encourage readers to learn and engage with new things other than react with dread." —School Library Journal (starred review)

The youngest child of a simple fishing family discovers the truth about the faraway monster they fear in this delightful, imaginative debut.


The Finlock family lives by the Pincer Sea, as peaceful as can be. They spend their days lounging and fishing for fronds to cook in their little copper kettles. It’s an idyllic life, disturbed only by their great fear of the frimbulitic Terrakeet! Luckily, they’ve never seen this carnivorous beast, for it lives beyond Finlock Bay. But one day, when there are no fronds to be found, the youngest Finlock journeys in all directions to search for other delectables . . . and comes face-to-face with the dreaded creature! But would such a terrible monster cry about swarming bees? Would it ask if the lad had been fed? First-time author Jo van der Borgh uses playful invented language to craft a classic story of discovering the true nature of others and making unexpected friends, illustrated with utter charm by Jo Beasley.

Great jeans for this price!
I was hesitant to buy jeans on Amazon but I thought I'd give these a try since I've had trouble finding a boot cut jeans that I liked. I ordered my true size 29" waist, size 8 regular length and they fit true to size for me. I'm 5'3" so I have to wear about a 1" heel, which I like for a boot cut. They have a decent amount of stretch (but not too much) so they are very comfortable. Wearing these with heels makes my legs look nice and long so they are really flattering. Mine are dark blue rinse and I'm going to buy another pair in black because I like these so much! Good job, Amazon

Polyester in the jeans
I did not take a photo in these jeans because I did not intend to keep them, however, they do fit very well. They are true to size and great for tall women. However, the reason why I removed two stars and the reason why I did not keep them is the fabric content. There is a new development in denim these days where brands are changing the fiber content of denim to create a more inexpensive fabric. I do not agree with this and will not keep a pair of jeans that have polyester in them. Jeans have always been 100% cotton since the beginning of time. Now we have added spandex to them so that they stretch a little bit, which is great. So, your jeans should all be 98% cotton with 2% spandex, if they have spandex in them. If not, they should be 100% cotton. If you find a pair of jeans and look at the fiber content, and they have added in polyester, run. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I live in a very warm climate in South Florida. I cannot and will not wear jeans that have polyester in them. It makes them itchy, scratchy, and hot. I could tell immediately when I tried these on that they had polyester in them, and I immediately took them off and put them back in the bag for the return pile. I highly suggest that Amazon rework the fiber content on these jeans and charge just a little bit more because I’d rather pay five more dollars and have the jeans with no polyester in them. Aside from that, they are great jeans, but they are a little bit stiff. I don’t know what they would be like after one wash because I did not keep them.

Even for a petite woman, the rise is very short

Very comfortable and stylish
So difficult to find a pair of well fitting jeans that are comfortable and look good. Stretchy in all the right places. Waistband comfortable with a good fit. Length is exactly what I was looking for, not too short and not too long. Bought two additional pairs.

I will try another size
Size: 20 Long, Color: Tinted Ice Light Wash
My overall opinion of these jeans are that I like them. I got them in long length and the length is great. I am 6’1 and mostly legs and they are perfect ….but I do feel they run large ….I ordered them in my typical size and they were too big so I sized down they seemed like they were gonna be good ( I did still want a looser fit ) but because they do have some stretch not long after putting them on they are so loose I could pull them down without unbuttoning. I wish I would have tried going down at least two sizes.
