From that moment Noi and his dad started spending more time together and Noi enjoyed every moment he spent with his dad. A beautiful ending to this heartwarming story. Noi and his dad spending time together. Este libro refleja lo mucho que las personas necesitamos estar cerca de otras así digamos que no, y que necesitamos sentirnos queridas o querer. The choice of the whale came seamlessly at the point of inspiration as I remember it. The idea that a whale could be in the bath was so misplaced as a concept that the story began forming around that starting point. Here is a trailer for the sequel to The Storm Whale. Could you make an animated trailer to promote this book?

The Storm Whale by Benji Davies is a beautiful story for your seaside/under the sea topic all about friendship and loneliness.Nostalgic and gentle, this book is beautifully crafted, with filmic, sometimes panoramic illustrations and a plot line that will give the reader goosebumps (in a good way) — so strong is the message and sense of there being a true friendship between boy and whale. We in this house love the sea and any stories about it, so this picture book caught our eye immediately. One day they are sharing a picnic by the sea. The two mugs that Noi had filled with drinks for himself and the little whale are now for Noi and his dad. What do they see? Out in the ocean two tail fins, one small and one large: the little whale has been reunited too.
