Didn’t like this book. The sailor got eaten. Quite hard to read some of it

I thought this book was funny because he whale ate the man and the man was dancing. My favourite character was the stute fish. Yes my friends should read this book because they will like it

A clever story about a greedy whale who couldn't stop eating - he ate everything until a kind mariner helps him.

It was a good book, it show you how you shouldn’t be greedy! It was fiction. I liked the whale the best because he learnt his lesson. I would recommend this book!

i liked it when the sailor got married and when he got out of the whales mouth it was really funny.

The hungry whale always eat fish. He ate all the fish until there was only one fish left. But it was very clever. The whale ate the man that the fish had told him to eat. But the man was clever too. The man made a grating with the raft he sat on. He put the grating in the whale's mouth and it was stuck! Now the only thing the whale can eat was very, very small fish. The man got married and lived happily ever after; and so did the whale.
