But yes, I also have to admit that I am perhaps somewhat surprised at the fact that one does not get to actually and textually know about Nellie's blindness until almost the very end of See the Ocean. Indeed and truly, in all ways, I have massively appreciate and have more than sweetly and emotionaly enjoyed See the Ocean both Estelle Condra's presented narrative and Linda Crockett-Blassingame's accompanying illustrations are poignant, evocative and just utterly lovely, always and forever complementing and mirroring each other (and especially the beach scenes and waterscapes really do show the magic of the ocean, the flowing, swirling, translucently mysterious sea).
