| Summary Note |
"When all of the whales in the ocean leave their home to walk around on land, people don't quite know what to think. Soon everyone is sharing their swimming pools, trains are hard to squeeze into and restaurants are running our of fish. Until a smart little girl decides to ask the whales why they have come out of the ocean and into the cities and towns..." - Back cover. |
