Ibis: A True Whale Story

Rating:
Summary: Touching and sweet, without being too cheesy.
Review: My four year old son checked this out from our local library, and he and his seven year old sister loved it. As their mom, I did, too! The drama of a real-life whale rescue at the waters' surface contrasts with the peaceful world of whales below. The comparison of the starfish with a human's hand was touching and makes one wonder how whales really think. A very sweet book, one that makes you realize how we put animals at risk by our behavior all the time, yet our hearts are not all that hardened... yet.
