The Whale, the Sea and the Stars

In this deep-sea lullaby for little ones (translated from Czech), a brave daughter whale leaves behind the warm waters of her youth and migrates through icy depths towards a hopeful but uncertain future in distant seas. Beautiful, organic illustrations filter light and shadow with decorative vines and swirling water, the result resembling antique etched woodwork. A whale crosses oceans to follow her heart and the stars in this magical underwater tale of happiness, homecoming, and new beginnings.
