Apparently, Rachel Bright is one of my favourite picture book authors. I didn‘t even know I had such a thing!

In perfect rhyme, this is the story of a dissatisfied materialistic whale whose stuff loses its shine as soon as he acquires it, and a bright little crab who suggests what might make him feel better.

rockpools Love the illustrations too. I don‘t remember many underwater books that play so effectively with dark and light. Beautiful and fun, with lots of intricate little touches.

Ideal for maybe 4-6 years, this would be great for a Storytime session about stuff, or gift-giving, or kindness.
