Boston displays the occasional flash of brilliance in her evocative descriptions of the sea and its creatures, and the enchantment they weave over Toby and Joe. While this is clearly a book intended for young readers, the adult who happens upon it might well wonder whether is contains a deeper metaphor about the nature of childhood. Just as the brief holiday provides a moment of enchanted calm before the storm, for both boys and triton, so too does childhood serve as an all-too-brief preface to the wilder waters of maturity. But all idylls must end...
Like most of Boston's work, The Sea Egg was illustrated by the author's son, Peter Boston. ( )
