What is The Storm Whale about?

Noi lives by the sea with his father and six cats. One day, after a storm, he discovers a small whale washed up on the beach. Feeling lonely, Noi brings the whale home, keeping it in the bathtub and sharing his world with it. When his father finds out, they both realise the whale needs to return to the sea. Together, they set it free, and Noi learns that his father can be a good listener too.
