A baby bird, a pig and a whale are not animals you would imagine becoming best of friends but circumstances bring them together for a fantastic adventure and an exploration of identity. A modern fantastic fairytale that explores some of the issues of the day, including the environment with beauty, humour and fun. Many modern-day children's books are very sweet and cute but there is a lack of introducing and preparing children to the realities of life. Fairy tales allow kids a safe place to explore the idea that life isn't always easy, that things can go wrong, and people don't always have your best interests at heart. At the same time, as the "good" characters are usually rewarded at the end, it's a way of reinforcing positively the importance of being kind, thoughtful and true.
