First introduced in The Pout-Pout Fish and the Worry-Worry Whale, Willa Whale is the star of her own spin-off series, inspired by the New York Times–bestselling Pout-Pout Fish books from Deborah Diesen and Dan Hanna. In this story, Willa overcomes her fear of getting called on in class.
Circle Time is starting,
But Willa’s feeling worried.
“What if I get called upon?”
Her tummy’s getting flurried!
Swim along with Willa Whale as she develops strategies and confidence for raising her fin. She might just discover that sharing our ideas, thoughts, and questions will help us learn and grow!
