Term 1- Reading Challenge Post 4

Title- The Longest Whale Song
Author- Jacqueline Wilson
Illustrator- Jacqueline Wilson
Rating- 10/10
Genre- Sad
This book was about- A little girl named Ella and she was just in love with whales. At the start of the book, Ellas Mum got pregnant with what was soon going to be Ella's little brother. 

What Ellas Mum didn't know was something went wrong with the pregnancy and the hospital caught it too late which put Ellas Mum into a coma. Which means that Ellas Mum can't eat talk move or do anything and she had to stay in the hospital. 

Even the doctors didn't know when she was going to wake up or if she was going to wake up! Ellas Stepdad looked after her for the period of time that her Mum was in the coma and took her to see and talk to her Mum every day. 

One of the days Ella told her Mum about how she was doing a project about whales at school and she told her that the humpback whale can sing. Ella put on some whale music which magically made her Mum open her eyes for the first time in 9 months! 

I absolutely loved reading this book and brought it because It really looked like a book that I would like and plus the girl's name is Ella which made me want to get it even more as my name is Ella! I recommend this book for everyone the age of 5+.
