The Whale on Bus 29 evokes in a very warm and poetic way a little girl's view of a colourful and moving woman who has been sitting in front of her bus stop for a week. In the eyes of the little girl, this woman looks like a whale stranded on the sidewalk. In creating this story, in which one of the two characters is a homeless woman, the author succeeds in creating a very endearing book, rich in tenderness, poetry, imagination, humour and emotion. This album was awarded the 2015 Jérôme Main Prize at the Cherbourg Children's Book Festival.
