The whale that wanted more

The Whale Who Wanted More is a story created for parents and children to read together in the modern age. Gentle and instructive, with beautiful illustrations, it is woven from universal messages, intended for all of us living in an era of consumerism and materialism, always rushing somewhere and hoarding things, toys, and obligations, without checking what we actually need.

This wonderful (children's) story in verse tells the tale of a search for happiness. The main character, a lonely whale, wandered aimlessly through the oceans collecting all sorts of trinkets in search of meaning, never managing to find it. In the end, he realized that all the treasures he had collected were not worth nearly as much as the friendship and love he carried deep within himself.

He found happiness the moment he found the place where he belonged.

The Whale Who Wanted More is one of seven wonderful, timeless books from the Rachel Bright series, which is a bestseller worldwide (The Lion Inside, The Koala Who Could, The Squirrels Who Squabbled, The Gecko Who Wanted to Be a Star, The Panda Who Wanted to Play, The Grumpy Camel)

Written in rhyme, with phenomenal illustrations, these books are the true synonym for a children's book, so it is no surprise that children, as well as adults, adore them for good reason and read them over and over again.
