I simply couldn't put my kindle down, it was such an amazing story, they may be dolphins, but to overcome what they had to overcome was amazing and to find the strength in each other, that is superb, why can't some humans take their example. Yes Hope was afraid at the beginning, but she learned to accept Winter, prosthetic tail and all.....I had tears rolling down my face while I was reading the book, yes, the book is short, but it is worth the read, when you feel down and can't seem to pick yourself up, I really would recommend you read this book, it is truly inspiring...
My granddaughters (ages 8 and 6) LOVE the incredible and heart-warming story of Winter (the dolphin without a tail!) in the DVDs "Dolphin Tale" and "Dolphin Tale 2", so this book was the perfect addition to their cherished Winter collection. It details the true tale (or 'tail'!) of the dolphin who couldn't swim... due to the recklessness of man. If you know someone who loves Winter as my granddaughters do, this book is a must-have!
I bought this book for my 9yr. old grandson for his birthday he just loved the story.The pictures are beautiful and the book is made well. I think all kids should have the opportunity to read this book.
This is a story about two dolphins with an amazing bond between them. It is a about friendship and bravery. The two dolphins are Hope and Winter. They were rescued exactly five years and one day apart from each other. I think this true story is for kids ages 5-7. It teaches that there is always hope no matter what happens. It also teaches that you should never give up just like Hope and Winter. I read this book to my little sister and she thinks that the dolphins were brave while trying to survive. I think that anyone who likes dolphins would really like this book.review by Masha K, age 9, Boston Mensa
My daughter is obsessed with Winter & has read every book about him. This was a great one!
Cute story to read to my granddaughter when she comes to visit me in Florida. Especially since we see dolphins swim by all the time.
We recently visited Clearwater Marine Aquarium and saw Winter and Hope. I had to get this and it's adorable. Fast delivery.
High interest children's book. My daughter was very interested in the stories of Winter and Hope!
