Call Me Moby is the story of an enthusiastic young whale who just wants to make friends—even if not everyone understands him. Inspired by Moby-Dick, it's a funny, heartfelt picture book about friendship, belonging, and finding people who appreciate you for who you are.
During the pandemic, I revisited Moby-Dick and just couldn't stop wondering what the whale would say if he finally got to tell his side of the story. Eventually I stopped wondering and wrote this book.
“A funny, bighearted twist on a classic.”
