Shortlisted for the Waterstone's Best Illustrated Book 2015 & Shortlisted for Oscar’s First Book Prize 2015 Stunning debut from AOI Illustration Awards 'New Talent' winner.
The Sea Tiger is Oscar's best friend, Oscar's only friend. They do everything together - explore the ocean, visit the sea circus, even hitch a ride to the surface to look at the stars - But Oscar is not a Sea Tiger, and so it's up to the Sea Tiger to help him find a new friend.
A bittersweet tale from a stunning new talent in children's illustration.
Victoria Turnbull was born in York, and spent her childhood absorbed by books and drawing. She studied Children's Book Illustration at the Cambridge School of At. Her goal is to create "images full of narrative detail that readers can lose themselves in, images that live long in the memory." She is an emerging star in the picture book world, whose talent led her to win the 2013 Association of Illustrators New Talent Award, Children's Book category. The Sea Tiger was one of the hot debuts of 2014 and has been nominated for the Kate Greenaway 2015 medal.
