Humphrey the Lost Whale

Rating:
Summary: Reading Rainbow
Review: I first saw this book on Reading Rainbow, one of my favorite PBS shows as a kid. The story fascinated me, and I'm glad I was able to get my hands on a copy. It's about a whale who can't seem to stay with his family (which all kids can identify with at one time or another), and how the community helps him find them again.

Review: The kids I used to babysit used to demand that I read this one incessantly. Very well-written, well-illustrated and cute.

Summary: The best whale "true story."
Review: The kind of book you think of when you're looking for a good whale story. Lots of personality and drama, and a super read-aloud for kids even as young as 4. Another fun whale story is The Whale Comedian, which is more humorous and whimsical, but, like Humphrey, shows what kids like most: how we can be friends with these exciting sea creatures.
