<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"First published in Australia by Scholastic Press in 2018."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b>In this beautiful story of kindness and empathy, loneliness and love, one creature finds that the help he needs is just a song and a sigh away.</b></b> <p/>Whale's beautiful song winds its way through the ocean, reaching the farthest of faraways. His song is one of happiness and hope, magic and wonder--and Whale's fellow sea creatures are calmed, cheered, and lulled by it. But though Whale sings his tender song day after day, night after night, Whale wonders why he has no song to fill his empty heart. So when he lets out a mournful sigh, the ocean carries it like a wish through its fathoms, bringing it to just the right place. <p/>Filled with stunning art and poetic language, this poignant story reminds us that being kind and helping a friend in need is sometimes the most beautiful thing of all. <p/><b>Praise for </b><b><i>The Heart of a Whale</i></b><b> </b> <p/>A picture book . . . that touches on the wistfulness of solitude and the joy of finding a companion. --<b><i>The Wall Street Journal</i></b><br><b></b><br><b>*</b> Lyrical text . . . dreamlike . . .
