I think that it was a good book because it was about animals and I love animals. I liked the whale the most.I recommend this book to someone who likes animals.

I really enjoyed reading the Best Mates book. My favourite story was This Morning I Met a Whale. It was about a boy who can communicate with whales. It was really interesting. I recommend this book.
