BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
APPEALS TO: MANY
Reading the story one way tells you that whales are the best. Read it either way around, however, and you are convinced that otters are the best. Which animal do you think is better?
The Whale's Tale and the Otter's Side of the Story is a clever, interactive tale that explores perspective by using the exact same text to tell two entirely different stories depending on which direction you read it. Biggs' illustrations are expressive and humorous.
