Description

Last summer, Noi saved a little whale that had been washed ashore by the storm. Now, as winter approaches, Noi longs to see his friend again. He watches the sea and waits. He waits and watches. Will it take another storm to bring them back together?

The special messages about friendship and family coexist with the minimalist illustrations of the award-winning creator in yet another fairy tale that will move and encourage young readers. This is the second book featuring little Noi and the whale, following Benji Davies' tender story "Noi and the Whale," which was released in January 2017 and captured the hearts of both young and old.

Key Features

  • Theme: Friendship, Devotion, Reunion, Winter, Nostalgia

  • Tone: Tender, atmospheric, and full of hope.

  • Age: 3-6 years old

Suitable for:

This story is ideal for cold winter nights, snuggled under the blankets. It is a perfect bedtime tale that speaks about the power of friendship that endures over time and distance, as well as the sweet anticipation of reunion.

Why This Book Is Special:

  • This is the touching sequel to the much-loved story "Noi and the Whale," bringing the heroes back for a new, wintry adventure.
  • Benji Davies' illustrations are magical, capturing the frozen winter landscapes with incredible warmth and a cinematic feel.
  • It tenderly touches on themes such as nostalgia, hope, and the belief that true friends find each other again.
  • The hero, Noi, is a wonderful character with whom children can identify: a little lonely, but full of kindness, curiosity, and perseverance.
  • The translation by Antonis Papatheodoulou flows beautifully in Greek, preserving the lyrical sense of the original.

A beautiful large-format book (29x25 cm), ideal for getting lost in its dreamy, full-page illustrations. It has a hard cover to withstand countless readings and contains 32 pages with the wonderful illustrations by the author himself, Benji Davies.

Suggestions for use by parents or educators:

  • An excellent book to introduce the concept of seasons and the changes in nature (from summer to winter).

  • Ideal for discussing how we feel when we miss our friends who are far away or whom we haven't seen for a long time.

  • Encourages observation skills through the detailed illustrations (look for the 6 cats on each page!).

With the book you can:

  • Discuss: What is the difference between the sea in summer and in winter? Why was Noi waiting for the whale? How did his dad realize that something was troubling him?
  • Ask the child: Have you ever missed a friend who moved far away? How did you feel? What would you do if you saw someone (or an animal) in danger in the cold?
  • Draw: Create your own drawing with Noi and the whale on a snowy beach or play by building Noi's house with blocks.

    Benji Davies has become our favorite author-illustrator. With his Noi series, he helped us transition from simple children's books to something more complex. My 15-month-old loved the entire series and is always engaged in the story. He carries the books around all day and asks us to read them again and again! Both the simplicity of the story and the beautiful illustrations attract both young and old, and allow parents to engage in vivid storytelling and foster imagination.

    Beloved Benji Davies, with his exquisite, tender, and atmospheric illustrations and the simple text that immerses you immediately, without much ado, in the mood of the story. It is the second book (out of the three so far) in the series, but it can be read as a standalone.
