About this listen

Blue Wing lives with her guardian Siringen, a shark caller, on the outskirts of her village. She’s desperate to become a shark caller herself to avenge the death of her parents, who were killed by a notorious shark, Xok. But it’s against tradition for a girl to become one, and Siringen believes Blue Wing still harbours too much anger in her heart.

When American Professor Atlas Hamelin and his daughter, Maple, arrive on the island, Blue Wing is charged with looking after the infuriating Maple. But, slowly, Blue Wing finds that Maple might be the one person who can understand her. And when they discover that Professor Hamelin is secretly searching for an ancient treasure, they find themselves on a journey to depths of the ocean, where Xok lies waiting.

This was gut-punchingly emotional, have tissues ready. There was a surprise, but I did suspect it earlier on.
I thought it was set in New Zealand but I see it's actually set around Papua New Guinea, although I'm so happy to have read this.

Absolutely beautiful. Gorgeous tale about friendship, love and loss. Not just for kids. Made me weep… Think this will stay with me forever. Beautifully narrated too.
