Publisher's Synopsis
Wallove, King of the Sea, is going about his usual business of hunting food, especially that delicious dish Sidney Squid. Down, down into the deep, dark ocean, Whallove swims until at last he finds the giant squid. But just before attacking his doomed prey, Whallove sees the fear in Sid's eyes and is struck with sudden pity. He lets his frightened dinner escape! He had never before questioned the Ocean Way of "Eat or be Eaten." But today his conscience burned and he started to wrestle with that fact that earth's creatures, including himself, live only by the deaths of other, weaker forms. Determined to defy Nature's Laws, Whallove sets forth to issue throughout his watery realm a solemn proclamation: "No eating of your neighbors here-not while these waters are MY sphere!" Can Whallove, with his compassionate decree, protect the small, vulnerable creatures in his kingdom? Can an elightened whale directly challenge and change nature's ways?
