Editorial Review:
Last night in my tub,
in my tub while I scrubbed,
I dreamed that I lived
in the sea with the Whales.
Magnificent Whales. Mysterious Whales.
Mystical, Musical, Mountainous Whales.
The narrator of this tale is a boy who knows that whales are endangered, magnificent creatures. He wants to do anything he can to save them and as he scrubs in his bathtub, he dreams up a plan to save the whales. Children from all over the world also come in their bathtubs to save the whales, planting a garden of whales
Up from the sea rose the Ghosts of the Whales
Up from the gray empty sea rose the Whales --
Blue Whales and Humpbacks, Gray Whales and Fins --
they rained down their tears on our secret whale garden"
He knows this is a fantasy -- but the dreams of children are the roots of action. A portion of the author's proceeds from this book will be given to the Earth Island Institute, an organization dedicated to developing innovative projects for the conservation, preservation and restoration of the global environment.
