I loved this story. My third grade students enjoyed the playful letters between Emily and Mr. Blueberry. We are studying animals in science and they are doing a research project on an animal. We are modeling a writing project after the format of this book. They are writing the letters from both perspectives using the animal they are learning about. They are enjoying being the 'expert' on their animal.

Reading the reviews for this book I thought it would be a more substantial book than what I found. It is a cute idea, but it is lacking in content. Very disappointed...will probably end up as a garage sale book.

This book is about a little girl named Emily. Emily thinks that there is a whale in her backyard, so she decides to write to her favorite teacher "Mr.Blueberry. Mr. Blueberry answers that she must be mistaken, because whales don't live in ponds, they live in oceans. One day Mr. Blueberry wrote a letter back to Emily about how whales were migratory, and she read it to her whale named Arthur. The next day, Emily looked in her backyard and Arthur was gone.
Days and days have passed and Emily was still sad about Arthur, she gave up and thaught that Mr.Blueberry was right. After a while she went to the beach and she saw Arthur there. Emily was finally very happy about Arthur and went back to the beach almost everyday to see him. I think that this was a great book.

This book was interesting to read.
it was about this little girl that she taught that she had a wale in her backyard pond. so she kept on writing to this guy about it,and the guy wrote back. the guy was telling her that a wale can't live in a pond because wales like to live in salt water (ocean)and also that wales migrate so the little girl was sad. time past by and the wale wasn't there no more she taught that the men was right,so then after a while they went to the beach and she saw the same wale there .she was saying to her self that she was right the wale in her house was the same....
i recomend this book to everyone because is a nice book to read you will like it..
