Bookroo's summary
Lilly listens as her grandmother tells of the whales she loved as a child: how she waited by the sea with a special gift until, at last, they came with a gift of their own. The whales fill Lilly's dreams, and she believes they will come to her too, if only she can show them where to find her.
