I absolutely loved this audiobook! I’m not normally a fan of fiction audiobooks although I do listen to non-fiction, however I thought my grandson would like this story. While I was preparing something I decided to put it on and I was hooked straight away. It’s a lovely story about a boy and a girl who are great friends and live in the north of Scotland. One evening they sneak out and climb up the hill where there is a monument of a whale’s jaw. Although Tulsi has an intuitive feeling that something is going on out on the sea, they go home to their respective houses and go to sleep. Next day though the feeling won’t go and she messages Satchen to meet her on the beach, they row over to a nearby island and once again the hear the noise Tulsi heard the night before. It’s a whale calling…….and so their adventure starts!
I was enthralled and I am 100% certain that my grandchildren will be too. We often put on an audiobook while we are in the car when I pick them up from school, and I cannot wait to put this on for them.
An easy five stars from me. I’d just like to say that part of the reason I don’t listen to audiio fiction books is that so often the voice of the narrator just isn’t right for the story or has an irritating voice - quite the opposite in this case. The narrator is perfect for the story beautiful Scottish accent and beautifully read. She definitely enhanced the book in my opinion.
My thanks to the author, the publishers and NetGalley for an advanced audio copy of this charming book.

A powerful tale ideal for children who want to learn more about whales and the state of the ocean. Its told in an informative manner with good quality narration that shines through with the message of safety first and love for froends and the oceans. It could be used in a variety of settings and i think this is ac5 star listen for a very important issue.
Thank you netgallery and publisher and author and narrator. I hope this is used to educate our future
