I have been meaning to read this book for ages, and today was the day I finally got the chance to read it. Boy, this was just so much fun to read. Poppy: MMMMmmmmm... I think... Probably about four. ...Because my baby one is lost, and the other three is not lost. Born deep in the ocean, Kelp is a unicorn who knows he's different from his family of narwhals. When a rogue current carries him away from home, he breaches the surface and spots a sparkling creature that looks just like him. Curious, he ventures onto land in search of the mysterious creature.

Poppy: Yeeeesssssss... ...Because... Because Lilliana has an "anna" in it, and Lilly just has "Lilly." Wait, are we just talking about unicorns? I think we're just talking about unicorns. All in all, definitely recommended to all. This is just too adorable, sweet, cute, and at times a bit sad. Drone footage of wild narwhals captured by Researchers from WWF-Canada shows them using their spiral tusk, to hunt fish. Narwhals need open water to be able to breathe, but this area has a high concentration of halibut for easy feeding.Tara: 4 stars. Cute. But why didn't the narwhals tell him he was a unicorn right away, if they knew!?

Ar žinojote, kad ir jūroje gyvena vienaragiai? Tiksliau sakant, šie gyvūnai yra delfinų giminaičiai, vadinasi narvalai ir turi iltį ant galvos. Visai kaip vienaragiai, tiesa? Ir įdomu, kad tokią iltį turi tik patinėliai. The myth of unicorn horns had circulated around Europe for centuries before his voyage, which faded as European experts become more familiar with the animals. 2 2. Both male & females are born with two small teeth embedded in their skulls, but only in males does the front left tooth grow into a spiral tusk. They have compressible rib cages which can be squeezed without harming them when swimming at huge depths. They also have twice the concentration of oxygen-binding myoglobin in their muscles as seals which allow them to swim at 1 meter per second underwater for 20mins, without needing a breath. 6 13. The origin of the name narwhal comes from the Icelandic words ‘nar’, meaning ‘corpse’ (in reference to its pale white color), and hvalr (whale). They are sometimes referred to as the ‘ unicorn of the sea‘, as the male Narwahl has a single long sword-like spiral tusk, which protrudes from their heads.Males use the tusks to determine social status, dominance over other males, and compete for mating females. 6. Narwhals use their tusks to hunt for fish. The Narwhal is a medium-sized, elusive whale, that inhabit the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans around Greenland, Canada, Norway and Russia. This grows from the front right side of its upper jaw. 4. The tusk is an ‘ivory’ canine tooth, that spirals out of the upper left side of the jaw.

We see him first grow up in the ocean, trying to be like a narwhal, and failing, but he is trying his best and I loved that the narwhal friends didn't mind him not being one of them. They cared about him. But then something happens and our little Kelp is swept away from his family and friends. Not Quite Narwhal is the sweet story of Kelp, a "sea unicorn," who doesn't quite fit in underwater, but when he discovers a community of "land narwhals" (also known as unicorns!), he misses his friends under the sea. Author/illustrator Jesse Sima's "fish-out-of-water," or "unicorn-out-of-water," story will delight readers as they follow the adventures of Kelp. The illustrations are perfectly adorable. A must-read for all unicorn and/or narwhal aficionados! -Diana F. Dad: Ummm... I can't write down what's in the book, because then people won't read the book, and they won't see the pictures. This species of whale is best known for its tusk—a long, spiraled tooth that usually only the males develop. (Females occasionally do.) The tusk can grow to 9 feet (3 meters) long and weigh more than 22 pounds (10 kilograms). MYSTERY TOOTHTouching on identity and fitting in vs. standing out, Kelp is the perfect role model for learning to love oneself and appreciating that our individual traits make each of us unique and special. Not Quite Narwhal begins with a dazzling cover that glitters and sparkles. Inside, a harmonious blend of brilliant colors depicted in soft hues portray an enchanting array of creatures and places: rainbow fish and silver-white jellyfish, flitting through a pale blue sea; round white eyes, floating in the darkness of night; and vibrant butterflies flitting over jade colored fields. Of course, we all know that Kelp isn't a narwhal, come on, it is that obvious, but that definitely didn't lessen the enjoyment of the book. As the main point of this book is that Kelp discovers this himself. He needs to discover who he is, and where he will live in the end.
