Educational, yet Entertaining

Reviewed in the United States on 16 February 2021

This book was fantastic! My nephew and I read this book together. Initially, we wanted to read it because it was about whales. What we didn't know is that it would prepare my nephew to have his first fish. When we get his new fish, that he also wants to name Blue, Corbin wants to protect and take care of his under the water friend. He wants to put the fish on a schedule so he does not get overfed and big in his belly. Corbin also couldn't wait to tell all his friends about how we can protect our oceans and sealife.

This book touches on such a critical and important topic, while keeping it kid-friendly. The illustrations are beautiful and the colors are nautical, fitting the theme. The checklist at the end made the book interactive too. I highly recommend!

What a Sweet Book!

This is a sweet adventure of a little boy with a big imagination... so big he thinks his fish is a baby whale. The idea made my son and daughter's eyes light up! I particularly like how this book touches on the history of whaling so parents can choose to discuss it with their kids, but since American whaleboats are only used for fishing and racing now, the author instead focuses on teaching young readers about how they can help keep the ocean clean and safe for whales (and Betta fish ;). It's a beautifully illustrated book that balances whimsy and education perfectly! And the "Hero of the Ocean To-Do List" at the end is a great bonus! I recommend this book along with the first two books of the series.

Educational with the innocent logic of childhood driving the tale.

Elliot and the Whale tale captures the mindset of a young child. Every child will identify with the ways Elliot thinks and reasons. The story has a sweet innocence. The artwork is friendly and inviting. The concern for the environment and wildlife will become dear to the child who is captivated by the tale. To anchor the story, there should be much discussion about this book and it ought to be referred to randomly as news about climate change and the effects on wildlife are reported in the news. Well done!

Fun fish book

What my 5 year-old granddaughter and I liked best about this book was the storyline about a boy and his pet beta fish. The illustrations were beautiful and there were great facts about whales, whaling history and conservation. That was great stuff but we were most intrigued by the boys relationship with his beta fish. The moral of the story was also useful information about caring for fish. I recommend this book for 4-8 year olds ( and their grandparents)

The author created a story that will peak a child's interest in oceanic issues.

This book brings light to our oceans' environmental issues through the delight of a child's imagination and friendship with his fish. The last two pages include 'Heroes of the Sea to-do-lists'; one written by the main character and his fish, and the other leaves space for your child to be Hero of the Sea by creating their own to-do-list. Making the book interactive is a great way to encourage involvement. Aside from the environmental aspects, I found myself interested in learning more about the history of Sag Harbor's annual whaleboat races.

This was a fun little children’s book about a boy who imagines that his pet beta fish is actually a baby whale. The story is engaging, the illustrations are charming and the message about stewarding and protecting the oceans is timely and valuable.

What a cute story. Can't wait to read it to the kids. I love the ocean and all it's wildlife, so I like the message that teaches a love of the ocean and whales ... future advocates for taking better care of such an important resource.

There is a lot of heart in this story and imagination too. It will be a good book to add to any children’s library. The story of the ocean and how endangered it is should be told and this is done well.

A bright adventure full of imagination. The illustrations are lovely, and themes of outdoor, unstructured play and love for nature are very welcome.

Another Charming Book in the Elliot's Adventures Series

This is a fun, intelligent & cute story about a boy & his pet fish. As with the other books in this series, the illustrations are charming and the author imparts a lesson (environmental awareness for this book) and gets her point across with a great sense of humor. At the end of the book is a page for a child to list ways they can help the environment.
