“If The Lion Inside is a bedtime favourite, Humphrey the whale is the natural next one. Any young collector of shells and bottle caps might feel gently caught out.”
Humphrey has a basket full of treasure. So why isn't he happy?
The Whale Who Wanted More is a rhyming undersea picture book about a whale who keeps collecting things but never feels complete.
Humphrey roams far and wide in search of the ultimate treasure, piling every goody he finds into the basket on his back. Yet something is always missing. So when he reaches a rainbow reef studded with flotsam and jetsam, he can't wait to dive in and grab more.
Why children love it
- A glowing reef crowded with fishes, crustaceans, molluscs, dugongs and urchins to spot.
- Humphrey's teetering basket of finds, full of odd little objects to pore over.
- Big lettered moments, from "...TO PERFECTION!" to a panicky "HELLLLLLP!"
By Rachel Bright · Illustrated by Jim Field · English
Quick answers
What does flotsam and jetsam mean? Bits and pieces floating in the sea or washed up on shore, just the sort of thing Humphrey wants to collect.
