The Whale, the Boy and the Sea In Between

A boy and a whale meet in the vast ocean and then are apart again. We don’t know why the meet, nor why they are separated we only know that their separation moves them. A beautiful little book about meeting and separating and about expressing our feelings and accepting that loss and separation are part of life.
