Review
Alexa Dretzke
Storm Whale starts off on a windy day when three sisters walk into town and are confronted with the tragic sight of a beached whale. The girls valiantly spend the day bucketing water over the massive beast, until dusk and a storm drive them dejectedly back to their holiday home.
What will the morning bring? Visually stunning and poetically stirring, Storm Whale represents the seaside world in all its imposing grandeur.
For ages 2 and up.
