A little boy races outside to swim, only to discover a massive whale plopped atop his kiddie pool. When his cry to mom results in a reminder about sunscreen, the boy tries his own means to move the marine mammal. "Inspired by Japanese pop culture," the illustrations of plump characters outlined with thick lines humorously capture the tyke's whale-sized dilemma and clever solution.
