The Dolphin's Promise
"The Dolphin's Promise" is a rhyming, enchanting tale written for parental ease in reading aloud. The book is vibrant with dreamy watercolor scenes. The story is set beneath the ocean waves, where a village of humans lives near a menagerie of sea creatures. Among them, a mighty shark finds himself enamored with a human girl who, in turn, feels a mysterious draw towards him. The villagers, however, live in constant fear of the shark, adversely affecting their daily lives.
An insightful village elder hatches a plan with the swift, intelligent dolphins. They make an agreement that if the girl, when she grows up, joins the dolphins, they will protect the village from the shark. The girl, deeply fond of the dolphins, agrees to this pact to safeguard her kin.
As years pass, the girl keeps her promise. She dives into the depths of the ocean, transforming into a dolphin under the shark's watchful gaze. This scene of transformation is a powerful display of loyalty and love, creating a harmonious ripple among the sea creatures. The girl, now a dolphin, revels in her newfound freedom and announces a profound truth - where dolphins are, sharks pose no threat.
The village thrives under the watchful eyes of their dolphin guardians. Children play without fear, fishermen prosper, and harmony returns. The mighty shark, despite his unrequited love, respectfully keeps his distance. The girl's transformation, her sacrifice, and the shark's yielding love become a tale echoing throughout the ocean, a story etched in every sea-foam's tone. It's a tale of bravery, love, sacrifice, and the power of alliances. It's a reminder to welcome the unknown with curiosity rather than fear. It's "The Dolphin's Promise."
A small list of vocabulary words is included at the end. The story is written for generations to share a love of the sea.Customer Reviews
