Meet Whale, a young whale calf who loves to swim. Follow along as Whale grows into the largest creature in the ocean in this beautifully illustrated board book for the very young.

Starting off as a baby close to its mother, Whale charts an incredible journey, traveling to colder waters to find plenty of krill to eat, growing with every swish of its tail. In this fun, informative board book, Whale learns the right time to surface for air, how to sing to other whales across the ocean, and when to return to warmer waters. A die-cut throughout the book emphasizes how nature is full of changes—and before long, it’s time to start the cycle all over again.
