The Lovely Whales (World of Happy) by Giles AndreaeThere was once a time when whales were rather small. But, long ago, there were two whales who CHANGED their kind for good. I LOVE you, said the gentleman, I do. I love you MORE, the lady said right back. I double diddy love you, said the man. Now, something ODD began to happen. At every declaration of desire, each whale became a little BIGGER than before.
