THE RIBS THAT LEARNED TO FOLD

a night book of the sperm whale

William Vincent Carleton

A sperm whale can fold its house: its ribs collapse like a lantern put away, so it can dive two miles into an hour of dark. Without leaving the quilt, Lúmine and Líam follow, learning that the whale was once a river cousin and that a great creature can choose company over a meal. A night book about the deep, scale and being less fragile than worry says.
