      About This Book

      Waiting for the Whales illuminates the unique friendship between grandparent and child and celebrates the restorative power of the natural world.

      An old man lives alone on a bluff overlooking the sea, tends his garden and waits. Only when the whales return each year to the bay in front of his cottage is his loneliness eased. Until, one day, an unexpected visitor arrives. Originally published over thirty years ago, this award-winning picture book is sure to enchant a whole new generation of readers.
