Willa and the Whale by Chad Morris and Stella Brown

 

Willa's world is turned upside down for a second time when she is pulled out of her Japanese school class tragic news: her mother has been rushed to the hospital. By the time Willa arrives, her mother has died. Now she is living a world away on an island off the coast of Washington state with her father and his new family. Willa's mother was a famous marine biologist, and Willa inherited her passion, especially for the giants of the ocean--whales. When her dad takes her on a whale watching expedition, Willa is ready to capture the whales with her phone. And the humpback whale the ship encounters doesn't disappoint. She shows off in front of the boat and the passengers get soaking wet. While the other passengers think the show is over, the whale sneaks up from behind the boat and cocks an eye at the deck, catching Willa alone. Willa starts talking to the whale....and amazingly, the whale talks back.
