In every generation since the legendary ‘whale rider’, a male descendant inherits the title of chief. But now there is no male heir – there’s only Kahu. She should be next in line for the title, but her great-grandfather is blinded by tradition and sees no use for a girl. But Kahu will not be ignored. And in her struggle, she has a unique ally: the ancient whale rider himself. With a fierce determination and the power of her gifts, Kahu may be able to strengthen her tribe’s ancestral connections, earn her great-grandfather’s attention – and lead her community to a bold new future. Can she embrace her destiny and become the next whale rider?
