Oh my gosh, this book is too sweet. Will is a quiet, timid whale who doesn't have any friends and mostly keeps to herself. But when her usually comfortable quiet gets to be too much, she sets out in search of a true friend. She gets lost in her travels, and comes across a tiny krill. Can a whale be friends with a krill? Can they help her find her way home?

This is an adorably illustrated story with a beautiful lesson and even some funny ocean puns to boot! Thank you to NetGalley and the author for providing me with a free eARC in exchange for an honest review.

I'm really glad that I got the chance to get an ARC copy of this book. It's definitely a book that I would read to my own kids, aged 4 and 2.

The illustrations are simply stunning, the colors and the whole vibe they give is so dreamy. The story is beautiful and beautifully written, with many lessons to learn from it, such as the importance of friendship, of finding your own voice and fight for what you care for. The soft and sweet way are those important things are said is so heartwarming.

My toddler LOVED Will and Krill. The story was so sweet and the illustrations were wonderful. It was a bit confusing that Will was a girl but still so sweet and fun.

A plucky little whale who finds her voice despite her size. The illustrations were gorgeous in this book and the story of the little whale finding her bravery was lovely. I feel as though the story began when the author heard a sea based pun and then ran with it as there wasn’t a strong story to it, but the overall message was nice.
Thank you for the ARC.
