Blue Ocean Bob empowers children to cultivate proactive attitudes, to value themselves and confidently tap into their inherent gifts for making their dreams come true.  In the natural and light hearted language of a child, Olbrys succeeds in making it obvious that it is the birthright of every child to live a bright and meaningful life filled with limitless opportunities.

I just finished Blue Ocean Bob and I really liked it.  The turtle was funny.  And I love all the animals.

I liked this story.  I think the best part of the book is when Bob finds out what he has to do.  Also, every animal helped Bob.  Pictures are so cute!’
