A bedtime story for curious kids about the secrets of the deep sea. Aboard the cosy little Boat-Cabin, Marin finds himself wondering about something truly enormous: why do whales sing their deep, mysterious songs, all the way down at the very bottom of the wide ocean? Together with his feathered friend Plume the bird, he decides to slip beneath the waves and find out for himself.

Down they go, deeper and deeper into the blue, and as they sink slowly into the cool, quiet water our two explorers listen with all of their might. Bit by bit, they begin to uncover the secret of that haunting song, the one that travels for miles and miles and miles through the sea. It is a real little lesson in nature, told ever so gently and absolutely brimming with wonder. The deeper they go, the more wonders they find, and the whale's song wraps around them like something almost magical.

Along the way, Marin discovers that the ocean is alive with messages and music that we humans almost never get to hear, and that the world is far bigger, far stranger, and far more marvellous than it ever looks from up on the surface. The song hums all around them in the deep, and the pair listen on, spellbound, until they understand.

This is a story made for sparking wonder and helping a child understand the world, the kind that answers the great big "why" questions that curious little ones so love to ask. Just right for the calm moment before nap time or sleep. It is a calm and curious little story for every child who loves to ask how the world really works.

It leaves a child with a head full of gentle pictures, of great whales gliding and singing in the dark water, the perfect daydream to carry along into the quiet of bedtime.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely to listen to at bedtime, at nap time, or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can drift off peacefully. 🐳
