2008년에 출간된 김일광의 동화다. 작품은 1970년대 중반까지 행해졌던 고래사냥에 대한 기록을 토대로 동화로 만들었다. 인간의 탐욕에 의해 무분별하게 남획되었던 고래 이야기를 귀신고래를 중심으로 들려주고 있다.

This novel for young adults was written by Kim Il-gwang and published in 2008. The story is based on records concerning whale hunting in Korea, which was allowed until the mid-1970s, and it deals with the overhunting of gray whales and with human greed.
