      About This Book

      Melanie wanted to be a pilot whale, following in the great Wellington family tradition, just like her father and grandfather.

      The big exam was coming up and the entire class of young pilots-in-training were nervous. And Melanie, starting to feel the pressure, thought cheating was her only option.

      Breezing through the exam and finishing first, Melanie was rewarded for her great results by piloting the graduates to the east coast on her own.

      Deep in the ocean, no sign of land, responsible for a class of young whales, will Melanie wish she had listened in class instead of cheating?


      This book will help children learn the consequences of cheating and honesty. This story is told as a metaphor to read aloud to children and enjoy together. The vibrant illustrations and use of language draws children in to be part of the adventure, gently guiding them alongside the characters to get the message on a more personal level for them, to make their own meanings and take control of their own life situation - in their own way.
