What's Charlie's Whale About

Publisher Summary

Charlie loves the sea. He loves the seashells and the seahorses, the sharks and the stingrays, the crabs and the crayfish. He loves the gentle waves that creep up onto the sand and tickle his toes. He loves the huge wild waves that crash onto the sand and make the beach tremble. But most of all he loves the whales. ‘A simple but heart-felt story about the wonders of the natural world and the rewards of patience’ SYDNEY MORNING HERALD ‘Libby Gleeson’s words are lyrical, and Hannah Somerville’s illustrations are almost ethereal as they combine to make a story that is as magical as the whales themselves’ READPLUS
