When Mum finally comes back up for air, I want to be right there next to her, holding her hand.

Ella’s mum is in a deep coma, having just had a new baby. That means Ella has to live with Jack, her hopeless stepfather, and cope with her tiny newborn brother, as well as worrying about Mum.

The only thing that’s going right for Ella is her school project. It’s all about whales and how they sing out to each other to attract a mate – sometimes for hours. Maybe a whale song could reach Mum, wherever she is, and bring her back to Ella and baby Samson.

Surely it’s worth a try?

A moving, tender story from the award-winning Jacqueline Wilson.

I thought this book was very touching and had a happy ending because Mother recovered and came out of coma. I recommend this book to people who like touching stories

This book is perfect to read if you are stuck at home and your parents tell you that you have been watching too much tv!
