About this book
Roedd yn forfil unigryw,
Gwahanol ac od.
Y morfil glas lleiaf
ynghanol y pod.
Dewch i gwrdd ag Enfawr. Mae ei frawd mawr Maelor yn dweud ei fod yn rhy fychan i chwarae ag e. Felly mae Enfawr yn chwarae gyda Catrin y crwban. Maen nhw’n neidio, plymio a dawnsio gyda’i gilydd. Ond pan fo’r anferth, bwerus Maelor mewn trafferth, y creaduriaid môr llai sy’n gallu helpu.
Mae’r stori hyfryd yma’n dangos and oes ots pa mor fawr neu fach ydych chi, beth sy’n bwysig yw maint eich calon. Mae caredigrwydd a gwaith tîm yn ennill bob tro. Mae darluniau hyfryd lliwgar tanddŵr Rob Biddulph yn llawn manylion bychain i’w darganfod a’r pysgod, crwbanod a morfilod yn hynod fynegiannol. Mae’r naratif rhythmig a’r odl yn gwneud darllen y stori yn uchel yn bleser. Bydd yn stori hyfryd i ddarllen gyda phlant ifanc.
This guy is unusual.
He’s different. He’s odd.
The smallest blue whale
in the whole of the pod.
Meet Gigantic. His big brother Titan says he’s too small to play with. So Gigantic plays with Myrtle the turtle. They leap and dance and dive together. But when the huge, powerful Titan is in trouble, it’s the smaller sea creatures who can help.
This delightful story shows that it doesn’t matter how big or small you are, what is important is the size of your heart. Kindness and teamwork will always win. Rob Biddulph’s gloriously colourful underwater scenes are full of charming details to spot, and his fish, turtles and whales alike are very expressive. The rhythmic, rhyming text is a pleasure to read aloud. This would be lovely to read with young children.
