   Additional Information  
 
  Om, a young blue whale calf, meets Molly, a human blue whale expert, who is attempting to decipher the whale language, and the two become friends. A shark attack injures Om, but Molly patches the wound. Om calls her the ‘small healer.’ When Om goes to the namings with his mother, a natural disaster separates them and Om must fend for himself. He finds friends in a young female blue whale, Sha, her mother Wa’, a cranky old humpback whale, Gol’saj, and a dolphin named Baba. Together they travel to find Om’s mother and the ‘small healer’ in the Antarctic where the golden krill are located. Killer whales stalk the travelers as they cross the Emerald Coral Maze and a serpent, Gandragon, guards the golden krill. Will Om and his friends survive the deadly killer whales and the poisonous Gandragon? Will he be reunited with his mother and Molly? Will Molly discover the secret to the whale language?
