Beachy and Me

(4) K-3 When a big blue whale named Beachy washes up on her tiny island, Pixie Picklespeare helps him; they become friends, romping through the ocean all summer long until it's time for Beachy to migrate, as whales do. Lively, retro-style computer-generated cartoons on large double-page spreads buoy an uninspired rhyming text. The endpapers contain a detailed map of Pixie's Island and the surrounding ocean.
