About the Book
Reviews

Flibberty is a young otter who spends his nights dreaming and staring at the moon instead of catching fish. But one day, the King of the River sets him a seemingly impossible task: to serve him a great fish on a silver dish before daybreak. As the moon rises over the river, Flibberty sets off downstream on a journey that will take him far from home. But will he manage to fulfil the king’s wishes before dawn?

‘A hauntingly magical fantasy.’ - Northern Echo

‘Humphries’s lyrical prose, festooned with internal rhymes and wordplay, is perfectly matched to his beautiful dusky watercolors. They shine with a silvery light, investing the adventure with a suitably majestic magic. First rate.’ - Kirkus Reviews

A jewel of a book. - Carousel

Whimsical yet lyrical, it is a lovely exploration of the riverbank and perfect for those who love a bucolic tale. - Bookseller
