The Whale Library by Zidrou
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
A beautiful poetic story with some good illustrations about a sea-postman who is making us discover his unrecognized difficult work and all the dangers that he might face after leaving his loved ones. Then, he made a chance encounter with a nice old whale who helps him get back home while she is asking him about things in his world and sharing with him her love for stories and books from her vast library that she carries in her belly , then she promises to meet him again in order to share more of her wisdom.
This is a book aimed for an adult audience, it was nice but the end gives you a good reminder slap about our harsh modern world but there is always a nice part to a sad ending that gives you hope and makes you feel better after all.
