The story of a girl who learns the true meaning of familyâthanks to her best friends near and far, a loving and quirky single dad, and an unexpected encounter with a whale.Â
Twelve-year-old Natalia Rose Baleine Gallagher loves possibilities: the possibility that sheâll see whales on the beach near her new home, that the boy she just met will be her new best friend, that the photographers chasing her actor father wonât force Nat and her dad to move again. Most of all, Nat dreams of the possibility that her faraway mother misses and loves Natâand is waiting for Nat to find her.
The thing is, Nat doesnât even know who her mother is. She left Nat as a baby, and Natâs dad refuses to talk about it. Nat knows she shouldnât need a mom, but she still feels like something is missing.
In this heartfelt story about family, friendship, and growing up, Natâs questions lead her on a journey of self-discovery that will change her life forever.
