review:
'Dear Professor Whale' by Megumi Iwasa with illustrations by Jun Takabatake is a book set in the same world as 'Yours Sincerely, Giraffe.' This time we meet some new letter writing characters.

Professor Whale lives near Whale Island. He's now retired, and he's lonely, so he starts writing to anyone out there who will respond. He gets a few responses, then one from a younger whale. Professor Whale may have known and competed with the young whale's father in the Whale Point Olympics. This makes him sad, but when some old friends show up, they decide to throw another Olympics. What follows is a series of games where the spirit of goodwill and friendship is more important than winning.

I adored this charming novel, just like it's predecessor. The illustrations are simple and sweet. The story is also.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Gecko Press, Myrick Marketing & Media, LLC, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
