Dear Professor Whale

by Megumi Iwasa Illustrated by Jun Takabatake A charming chapter-book follow-up to the international bestseller Yours Sincerely, Giraffe

Â

Yours Sincerely, Giraffe is one of my favourite Gecko Press books in 13 years of publishing, and this follow-up has all the warmth and quirky joy of the original.

Julia Marshall, Publisher

Professor Whale is the only whale left at Whale Point. He thinks often of the old days when his friends were all around and they competed at the Whale Point Olympics.

One day, he gets a letter from Wally. The young whale has heard about the great big enormous whale who won gold for his spectacular spouting. That gets the Professor thinking. What if there could be a new Olympics, with the sea full of whales again?

Read the rst chapter here.

Yours Sincerely Giraffe was in the New York Public Library’s top 10 books of 2017, an USBBY Outstanding International Book 2018, shortlisted

for the UKLA Book Award, and received starred reivews in Kirkus, Booklist and School Library Journal
