🐋 The Whale Watchers

In this atmospheric B1-level interactive storybook, 15-year-old Tomas Ferreira lives on the island of Faial in the Azores, where his grandfather was one of the last whale hunters. When a proposed shipping lane threatens the sperm whale habitat, Tomas joins forces with marine biologist Dr. Carvalho, combining his grandfather's traditional whale-spotting knowledge with modern acoustic research to build a case for a marine sanctuary. The story weaves in Azorean island life, volcanic landscapes, whale biology, and the transformation of a community from hunters to protectors.
