Description

Mom's Choice Award ® Recipient
Take a peek where the reef fish play atop colors of coral like rainbow sorbet! And if you look just right…you might get a glimpse of something majestic….extraordinary…
Meet Dune, riding each wave with a radiant will!
This uplifting story celebrates ADHD strengths, self-acceptance, and perseverance while reminding readers that the qualities that make them different can also help them shine.

Remember – a manta ray must always stay in constant motion while gliding through the ocean. Yet Dune, swims to his own tune, and despite when the current feels strong, he shows us how challenges become sources of growth, courage and resilience.

Embark on this voyage and explore emotions often found buried like an ocean treasure. Learn some sea-worthy vocabulary, fascinating manta ray facts and chart some deep dive discussions. The marvel of the manta-ray is a good reminder we must always soar and keep moving forward.

A Note From the Publisher

If you’d like to share your thoughts about Dune’s journey, an honest Amazon review would mean the world. It helps other families discover this enchanting ocean adventure, and I would be so grateful.

Advance Praise

As a mom and a social worker- I loved reading this book to my kids! It provides representation for children with ADHD or living with someone with ADHD- focusing on strengths and abilities, rather than deficits- and provides exposure for other children, deepening both understanding and empathy, and normalizing these types of behaviors. The Discussion Questions at the end of the book are great conversation starters, and the Note to Moms and Dads is very impactful. You can see how much thought and care went into this book, from start to finish- which will really resonate with readers young and old. - March 2026 Review
