The Whale Who Wanted More
Rachel Bright, Jim Field
Under glittering waves of a vast ocean blue, a beautiful world is hidden from view.
And there, in the cool and the quiet of the deep, a great, gentle giant was stirring from sleep . . .
Humphrey the whale is on a quest: to find the one perfect object that will make him feel complete. He roams far and wide, gathering endless undersea treasure as he goes. Yet, no matter how many goodies he accumulates, Humphrey still doesn’t feel content. Could it be friendship, not possessions, that will really make Humphrey’s heart sing?

Loved it because it teaches me it is not about what you own, it is about appreciating the value of things and sometimes less is more

I really liked it when the whale found that he didn't actually need more.

This is a fiction book. I loved the crab and the whale because they helped each other out. I love the book because it was smart and I love how the whale was unsure that he couldn’t be alone, but then the crab told him something and that made him and me really happy and excited. I would recommend this book to someone else.

This story is about whale who want more all time but still not happy. Key of happiness is sharing and caring other.

I love the colours in this book and how the whale finds out that he doesn't need all the shiny items in the sea because he would still be lonely without his friends who are the biggest treasure he could have
