Review

Pixie Picklespeare lives alone in a lighthouse on an island. She is BORED of the same old thing every day until a huge, very blue whale washes ashore. He manages to return to the sea on the next high tide, and he and Pixie have rollicking good adventures in the sea. Text is rhyming, adding a bouncy feel to the romp. Colorful digital illustrations are eye catching. There is a good feeling of friendship. Cute and catchy.

Overall Book Score: good
