My mom found this book at a book fair at the school she works in. She had showed it to me, explaining how people had made a brace for a dolphin. I wasn't very interested. I paid no attention to it, and picked out a different book, the #4 in the Humphrey (hamster) series.

On Christmas, 2009, my mother gave it to me as a present. I immediately whined i didn't like the book. she asked why. I lied saying it scared me. She looked down, sadly.

One night after that, I was feeling sad and I wanted to cheer myself up (note I didn't have the Blue Day Book For Kids). So, I pulled this book from my shelf. I sat on my bed and read. I smiled when I saw the dolphin swimming in a picture, looking happy.

I now read this book when I feel sad. It's a great cheer-up!

Cute and informative, a moving story about a baby dolphin named Winter who lost her tail. Her recovery was amazing, and it's outstanding how many people care about her and worked hard to make her a functioning prosthetic.

While this is a short read, it's enjoyable and educational for kids and adults alike, especially those who have an interested in dolphins and marine life.
