Whale Brother Book

I felt good as I read this book. Not stressed. It allowed me to see a glimpse of a world I love through another's eyes. Steiner brings the reader closer to nature, while also showing us what it means to be an artist. I'd be careful when choosing a time to read this to a child. Omu's life is so different from ours, that the kids could easily close down when listening to this story and decide they don't like books about whales/life in the arctic. This will remain on my shelves (real and virtual).
