PRAISE FOR Narwhal: Unicorn of the Sea: ‘Undersea adventures have never been so darn cute …. The incessant charm and unabashed joy should make this an easy sell. Swimmingly delightful and a guaranteed smile-maker’ – Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews ‘An utterly enchanting start to a series that’s bound to be popular among young readers’ – Starred Review, School Library Journal ‘Geez, Narwhal and Jellyfish are adorable. There’s no other word as appropriate for this duo& readers will likely clamour for the next outing’ – Starred Review, Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books ‘Bantering dialogue entertains throughout, but the book’s best moment might belong to the third story, when Narwhal lends Jelly his “favourite book in the whole wide water, which is blank…“. ""It’s an imagination book, Jelly!… Narwhal explains. Readers ready for underwater goofiness of the non-SpongeBob variety will be eager for more adventures from this duo’ – Publishers Weekly Ben Clanton is the author/illustrator of the NARWHAL AND JELLY early graphic novel series as well as IT CAME IN THE MAIL, VOTE FOR ME!, and REX WRECKS IT.

I Liked how narwhal was very funny
My favourite character is Jelly because he ate waffles and he didn't know that they were called waffles and then he ate them and then he really loved them.
I love it when different species are friends
I enjoyed how they thought each other were imaginary. The jellyfish thought the narwhal was imaginary and the other way around. And there were also really good jokes in the book!
