A whale of a good time for read-alouds and independent reading alike.
Whale is a bit of a dreamer. She loves to play pretend and imagine what could be. Quail is down-to-earth, and keeps her friends grounded. Snail may be small, but they think BIG.
Together, these three friends have a lot of fun and unexpected adventures!
A Whale of a Tea Party
Meet Whale. She spends most of her time exploring the area near Tiny Island, dreaming of a day when she’ll have real friends, not just rock friends. One day, Whale decides to throw a tea party…and it changes everything, especially when Quail and Snail show up!
“In this sweet, imaginative early reader, Perl weaves in friendship’s give-and-take with word repetitions and ending sounds. . . . This addition reinforces early reading concepts and illustrates the true beauty of friendships new and old. ”
