Overview
This story uses well-known idioms to persuade a child to go on an adventure. A little girl complains all the way during a long trip with her grandfather, who patiently insists that some things are worth the wait. Elena is fi nally convinced when the point of the journey is revealed at the end of the book. The extensive dialogue is written in repetitive sentences that lend much support to early readers.
Purpose
With this book, students will learn about the use of speech dashes (guiones) and exclamation marks. The virtues of patience and persistence can be discussed, and the book can also be used in the context of a science unit on whales or marine mammals.
