The Whale Rider by Witi Ihimaera

4.0

---

This was such a beautiful book. While it is considered a YA book, I think some YA readers might not hang through some of the early chapters, but I loved it. I would highly encourage you to listen to the audiobook, because the music that comes in between the chapters does so much to bring this world to life.
