Gigantic is a young whale who despite his name is very tiny. His big brother Titan makes fun of him and says Gigantic should play with the smaller sea creatures. Gigantic does just that; having lots of fun with his new friend Myrtle the Turtle. One day Titan’s friends Hulk and Colossus notice Gigantic’s impressive tail spins. Titan is jealous and determined to show that anything his brother can do he can do better. Despite warnings that the water is too shallow Titan goes ahead and quickly becomes grounded. It is up to Gigantic and his team of small sea creatures to try and save the day.
This is a delightful story about sibling rivalry and love. It shows that it is possible to make a difference even if you are small and it is the size of your heart that is most important.
Stunningly illustrated and designed with rich colour there is lots to spot in the detailed undersea world. The rhyming text invites children to join in once familiar with the story.
