Alerted to the appearance of a rarely seen whale in the north of Norway, Māori marine biologists Aihe and Whina set out from Otago to track its path and find out what is going wrong with the world’s oceans. 

Co-publishing with Sámi publisher Davvi Girji, this unique picture book is trilingual in Māori, Lule Saami and English – foregrounding the connection between the indigenous peoples of Norway and Aotearoa, while telling a poignant story that highlights the need to care for our marine environment.
