I love seeing the world through her eyes and seeing how she solves the problems she faces in ways that would never occur to me as a hearing person. How will she play her song for him?Īdventure, loneliness, discovery, friendship: Song for a Whale holds so much between its pages. Then she has an idea: she should invent a way to “sing” to him! But he’s three thousand miles away. When she learns about Blue 55, a real whale who is unable to speak to other whales, Iris understands how he must feel. If you’ve ever felt like no one was listening to you, then you know how hard that can be. But she’s the only deaf person in her school, so people often treat her like she’s not very smart. From fixing the class computer to repairing old radios, twelve-year-old Iris is a tech genius.
