The Tale of the Whale
By Karen Swan
Illustrated by Padmacandra
A poetic tale of friendship and the beauty of the ocean, highlighting the need to stop plastic pollution and change our future.
'Where land becomes sky and the sky becomes sea, I first saw the whale and the whale first saw me . . . '
So begins a lyrical journey that brings wonder, discovery and friendship, but also an uncomfortable realisation- plastic pollution and carelessness are destroying the ocean and the creatures who call it home.
Can we work together to change the future of the sea?
