This story aims to show the way of living of the biggest animal in the world: the blue whale. Blue whales lead a lonely life spending most of the time on their own and rarely joining some other whales. The blue whale in this story admires the sun and all the beauty of the ocean. He faces danger and must protect himself. The blue whale is curious of other creatures such as people. He even makes some short friendships with a boy. But it never lasts too long as whales and a boy have quite different ways of living. And time to separate comes. Such a short friendship reminds the reader that the whale is made to lead a lonely life. Finally, the whale must do his duty and give birth to other whales.

He has to come back to his home as he is made to live a lonely life. However, he is the biggest animal in the world, lonely but beautiful and this beauty is seen in his movement, splashing, swimming, swallowing, and leading this simple lie in the dark waters. And that's what makes him so special, so interesting, so impressive and must be shown through the illustrations.

Book Description
Hope is the new icon of the Natural History Museum, a stunning 9,000 pound, 82-foot-long blue whale skeleton. Suspended by steel wires and captured in a majestic swooping posture, her reconstruction is a work of art as well as a feat of engineering. Her story begins in 1891 when she was found beached off the coast of Ireland. A lucrative find for a local fisherman, her skeletal remains were sold to the Museum. The project to restore her took three years to complete, including 10 months of painstaking laboratory work to clean and repair each of her 221 bones. Combining the latest scientific research into the blue whale with behind-the-scenes imagery, this book sheds new light on the largest creature ever to have lived on Earth.
