what's inside.
The story.
Advises the reader about what to do, and not do, in order to successfully spot a whale - such as wrapping up in a not-too-cozy blanket, ignoring the roses, and especially being patient. Julie Fogliano's quiet, poetic text pairs beautifully with Erin E. Stead's soft, pencil-and-woodblock illustrations to create a meditative ode to patience and wonder.
