Watchung Booksellers Author/Illustrator Storytime Series - Fiona Robinson, "Whale Shines"
Please join us at Watchung Booksellers for this exciting event in our Author/Illustrator Storytime Series! This time we feature Fiona Robinson, author of Whale Shines!
All day, Whale swims through the ocean, wearing a poster advertising a big upcoming art show. He visit the eel, wriggling abstract patterns in to the sand, the squid, who paints with ink, and the hammerhead shark, who builds sculptures from salvage. Whale wishes he could be an artist too, but he doesn't know what to make and insists he too ungainly to create art. Then one day, with the help of some bioluminescent plankton, he discovers his own unique talent.
