This story is about a young girl called Ella whose mum is in a coma after having her baby.She then has to go home with her stepdad (who she dosn't like very much).
She misses alot of school and so she starts a whale project, which she gets very interesting. She found out that one whale was recorded for 22 hours singing.So when she plays it to her mum will it get through to her just like the whales...
This is a great book and when I got it for xmas I was overjoyed! I luv Jakie! This book made me feel really sorry for Ella (and her poor Dad). If your're not sure defo buy this book! It may be expensive but it's worth it I promise. :-)

when i first started reading this book i wasn't to sure about it but when i got into it i couldn't put it down. It didn't take me long to read this book as i kept wanting to know what would happen next. This book is about a little girl called ella who lives with her mum and her stepdad(who she didnt like at first.)when her mum was giving birth something went wrong so the doctors had to put her in a coma which meant ella had to stay at home with jack her stepdad alone.This is torture for ella but after a while she relises hes not that bad and they both work together to look after the little baby.This book shows how much affectionate ella is about her mum. I would recommend this book to anyone it is AMAZING!!!! and it is so hard to describe it in one word.

My 13 year old daughter thinks that all of her books are great. She really enjoyed the Longest Whale Song. Some very emotional bits in this book. Great read.

Sad topic but well written
My daughter loves Jacquie Wilson- this is a little different about a girl whose mother is in a coma. She found it quite confronting but did enjoy reading it.
