Chained by lynne kelly7/5/2023 ![]() ![]() For one, there's a documentary in the works about "52 Blue," so there's no telling what we'll find out from that or future research. I decided to fictionalize the whale for a couple of reasons. When she learns in her science class about this whale who can't talk to anyone else, she decides she has to find him. I found that character in 6th grade Iris, who's the only deaf student at her school. I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about the 52 Hertz whale, and finally gave up trying to get back to sleep and got up to start writing about the kind of kid who would run away to try to track him down. After a little research I found that it's likely that the whale is a male since they're the singers, and that other whales can probably hear him, but don't understand what he's saying. ![]() Thankfully I was online at the right moment, and that I scrolled back to read the description. ![]()
