Professor Whale is the only whale left at Whale Point. He thinks often of the old days when his friends were all around and they competed at the Whale Point Olympics. One day, he gets a letter from Wally. The young whale has heard about the great big enormous whale who won gold for his spectacular spouting. That gets him thinking. What if there could be a new Olympics, with the sea full of whales again?

In this charming follow-up to the international bestseller, another correspondence flourishes across the horizons. The letters bring penguins, whales and seals together at the Whale Point Olympics, with friendship and humour winners on the day.

Industry Reviews

"To those who enjoyed Yours Sincerely, Giraffe by Iwasa this is a must-read." -- Starred Review, Youth Services Book Review (US)
"Takabatake again contributes childlike black-ink drawings that amplify the gentle, heartwarming nature of this beginning chapter book about friendship and how kindness reigns over winning." -- Booklist (US)
"An ode to the joys of friendship and letter-writing, this is a great choice for early chapter book readers." -- School Library Journal

"Delightfully silly, since the events are: a seal swimming race, a penguin walking race, and a whale spouting contest."

-- Kirkus Reviews
