A Princess Guinevere Adventure

The Princessand theWhale

Daniel Henderson

The debut · Ages 2–6

A storm. A wave.
A very big whale.

When Princess Guinevere sets sail across the sea to visit her cousins, a great storm sweeps her overboard! All alone in the deep blue ocean, help arrives from the biggest, friendliest place imaginable — inside the mouth of a whale. A warm, funny read-aloud adventure about bravery, kindness, and (mostly) doing what the captain says.

On Amazon soon — check back for launch news and free coloring pages.

About the author

It started at bedtime.

I started making up stories for my own kids at bedtime — the kind with brave princesses, grumpy captains, and the occasional very large whale. They asked for them again and again, so one day I started putting them on the page.

The Princess and the Whale is the first one I finished. There are more on the way — written, illustrated, and read aloud a hundred times before they ever reach a page.
