Maybe A Whale
by Kirsten Pendreigh
illustrations by Crystal Smith
After Grandpa dies, a girl and her mother take the trip he had planned for them, kayaking along the Pacific west coast to look for the whales that he loved.
The trip will do them good, Mom says, but the girl isn’t sure. How can that be true when grandpa isn’t there? And how will they find a whale in all that water, anyway?
In this lyrical story, mom and daughter find the space to miss Grandpa and reconnect with each other in the wild beauty of nature.
And they come to realize that — perhaps like whales — those we’ve loved are always with us, even if we don’t see them anymore.
