The story of Hvaldimir is, in no small part, about the longing between people and a curious animal to get to know one another, and about the transformations that can result. Why not advocate for  more  interaction between humans and animals, when they naturally and safely occur?

For most of recorded history, people have thought of people as the only ones that were someone. Well, they used to talk to Rocks, Rivers, and Trees, but they long forgot to do that ever since. This is a book about thinking about how the world is to all the someone’s that aren’t like you and I.
