Some children rush straight into play. Ella needs a little more time.
Ella wants to join the other children at the playground, but everything feels too loud, too fast, and too much. Clutching her beloved toy whale, she wishes she could escape.
Just then... the air grows still. Colors shimmer in the mist. Ella looks up as a large, luminous shape appears. "It's my whale," she whispers.
Ella and the Flying Whale is a tender picture book for children ages 4-7 about shyness, big feelings, imagination, and finding your own way.
What will Ella discover on her journey with her whale?
