- "a delightful underwater fantasy about a little girl named Ann, who searches for the "Lost Atlantis" with a friendly dolphin as her guide." --publisher advertisement, The Boston Globe 1967-10-29 pC10, as ages 8-12
- "Ann falls asleep by the shore, and suddenly finds herself in conversation with a dolphin. The Dolphin shows her how to swim under water ... The atmosphere is very much like that in Alice In Wonderland, where the impossible seems perfectly reasonable, and characters can bicker, even in the face of mortal danger because it is, after all, just a dream. The dolphin ... carries on a running semantical squabble with Ann ..." --review, The Boston Globe 1967-10-29 pC10
- "In a gay nonsense fantasy, Ann in oceanland seeks the Lost Atlantis ... Witty worldly word fun." --starred review, Kirkus Reviews (contemporary, undated online, above)
- "A girl searching for the Lost Atlantis is accompanied by a witty dolphin who introduces her to the sea creatures." --blurb, Amazon.com 2018-03-11 as ISBN 0394918878
