An adorable white whale tries to make new friends with hilarious results in the debut picture book by New Yorker cartoonist Lars Kenseth.
Meet Physeter Macrocephalus – but you can call him Moby.
He’s got the BIGGEST toothy smile, and he's always up for a game of tag. Plus his backflips can’t be beat! Who wouldn’t want to be his pal?
So when Moby encounters a ship full of sailors, he's eager to make a bunch of new friends. What could go wrong…?
Illustrated in bold full color, this funny, charming riff on the Herman Melville classic, Moby-Dick, is at its heart a story about making friends and belonging – and finding those who accept you for who you are. Perfect for fans of Jory John and Jon Klassen.---from the publisher
