The short poetic tale of "...Willie the Humpback Whale" dates back to 1982, now some thirty-four years old. Since then, some 7200-free books have been given out to charities, 500 to "Toys for Tots" to the U.S. Marines in Minnesota for distribution, and to many schools and libraries throughout Europe and the United States. In 2008, and again in 2009, after 26-years out of print, the author did the book in Spanish and English, for the Peruvian children in the mountains, 2000-books were printed and given out to schools, orphanages, Aids Children Organizations, etc. Once again, and perhaps for the last time, the author brings back, to life: "The Tale of Willie the Humpback Whale," a most delightful story, that a Producers Report by Creative Entertainment Systems, out of West Hollywood, CA, in 1982, said, "This entertaining and heart-warming story that teaches a lesson, has all the ingredients needed to make a warm, charming refreshing children's animated television movie or special." The story emphasizes child's self-esteem.Photograph of Dr. Dennis L. Siluk, while whale watching off the coast of Iceland, September, 10th, 1999.About the AuthorDr. Dennis L.
