In our class we are doing a unit study called saving Finnegan. It is set on the islands of coll. It is all about a girl named Holly who went down to the beach one morning and saw a rock which in actual fact was a whale. She wants to save the whales life with the help of the postman. I am really enjoying this book so far as we are on chapter three and have loads more to find out. I hope you have enjoyed reading this blog.

My class are doing a Unit Study called Saving Finnegan. One morning Holly wakes early to find an amazing thing happened overnight – a whale has been stranded on the beach below her house.
Soon she is at the forefront of efforts to save the whale. But things aren’t as simple as she would like, and when the small island commun
ity is divided over what coarse of action to take, Holly finds herself engaged in a battle in which she has some unlikely friends and foes. – Blurb of Sally Grindley’s Saving Finnegan. I’m really enjoying the Unit Study because it is all about what you would do in real life if a beached whale appeared stranded in front of you! I’m looking forward to reading on and discovering what happens to Finnegan.

In school my class and I are reading Saving Finnegan, which is our unit study.
Saving Finnegan is very interesting. It is about a young girl called Holly and she finds a whale all alone on the beach. She had to get her local postman to come and help. Postman Cyril got lots of people to help out as well. The author of the story is Sally Grindley. I cant wait to read more of it because we are half way through chapter two. I would recommend you read it because it is a very interesting book which makes you want to read on and find out more.
Thank you for reading my blog!

This term our topic is called Saving Finnegan which is our unit study.
Saving Finnegan is about a girl called Holly. One morning Holly goes to the beach and finds a whale. She tells the postie ( Postman ) about the whale. Then her dad goes to the fire brigade and asks them to spray water onto the whale. She decides to call the stranded whale Finnegan. I don’t want to waste the rest of the story for you. This book was written by Sally Grindley. It is also based on a Scottish island called Coll. I suggest you to read the book because it is very interesting. ( We are only on the third chapter at this moment in time ). Thank you for reading my blog.
