The Storm Whale

Product Information

Noi lived with his fisherman father and their six cats in a small house by the sea. Every day his father would head out to sea on his boat, and the young boy would be on his own. Then one day, after a great storm, Noi found a baby whale washed up on shore. Determined to care for this stranded creature, Noi brought the whale home and put it in the bathtub. His understanding father, when he discovered the cetacean in the tub, realized that Noi had been lonely, but told him that they would have to return the whale to his ocean home all the same. On the second day of our trip, we had to get up very early in the morning and go to a small airport in the capital Reykjavik where we caught a tiny 18 seater plane northwards to Húsavík. Although it was summer, Iceland lived up to its chilly sounding name. It was cold and raining as we took off – even so, it was very exciting! The two propellers spun round and the little plane lifted up and up until it was high above the clouds, up above the rain and into the bright sunshine. Using voices or improvise instruments to make the sounds of a stormy sea. This is more fun if you do it together, perhaps recording your stormy sea sound effects. Paint a picture
