I used to own this book when i was younger. So happy to read it again. Beautiful illustrations and story that tells of whales, dreams and following your passions no matter what the nay-sayers tell you. Great for any age

I loved the audio book version of this when I was a kid.

Similar in theme to her other picture book, Under the Moon, with beautiful paintings. Sheldon's protagonists in both are children who are trying to connect to the past and/or with nature.

This is a gorgeous story about Lily, who is fascinated by whales. We see this passion as the reader through the blending of Lily's face into the blue of the whale's body in the pictures. A book about imagination and the beauty of the natural world. The images are haunting for us and dream-like.
