From Emmy Award-winning documentary filmmaker James Robinson comes a breathtaking illustrated memoir for middle-grade listeners (and adults, too)—inspired by the viral, Emmy-nominated short film Whale Eyes.
Told through an experimental mix of intimate anecdotes and interactive visuals, this book immerses listeners in James’s point of view, allowing them to see the world through his disabling eye conditions.
Listeners will get lost as they chase words. They’ll stare into this book while taking a vision test. They’ll hold it upside down as they practice “pretend-reading”…and they’ll follow an unlikely trail toward discovering the power of words.
With poignant illustrations by Eisner Award-nominated artist Brian Rea, James’s story equips listeners of all ages with the tools to confront their discomfort with disability and turn confused, blank stares into powerful connections.
* Whale Eyes is meant to be twisted, turned, and experienced. This audiobook includes a downloadable PDF with illustrations, experiments, photos, and interactive visual components. The PDF helps the listener experience the visual effects while they listen to author James Robinson read from a copy of the text.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
