Amazon Description

Indigo wants to be a musician, but his father wants him to become a fisherman. One day Indigo heads out to sea and charms a whale with his magical. Realizing that destroying the whale will destroy her music, too, Indigo lets the whale go and takes her songs back to serenade the whole village. Beautiful, full-color illustrations convey the magic of the sea in this sensitive story about being true to oneself.

One Potato Review

What greater gift to children’s books than the whale? As big as house, they don’t even eat us, and just maybe they are wise enough to have any idea what we are about. But do they sing? This is a book about music and all you can make of it - especially if you are willing to listen where no one else tries.
