A pod of dolphins (and their porpoise friend, Petey) is in trouble. Their reef no longer provides the food they need to survive. The pod can’t figure out what to do until Petey suggests they hold an election to decide. VOTING WITH A PORPOISE is a fun, timeless, and beautifully illustrated story that teaches children how elections and voting have the power to solve hard problems. The authors created this book to help change the culture around elections and voting. To that end, 100 percent of the profits for VOTING WITH A PORPOISE will be donated to 501(c)(3) non-partisan voting-related causes focused on getting more people of all backgrounds to the polls, such as Rock the Vote, Vote.org, TurboVote, and others.

I don't have kids, but if I did I would read this book to them everyday. If you give a kid a fish, you feed her for the day, 2 days maybe, with leftovers. But you can read this book to her, and she'll know how to find fish and vote for the rest of her life. No leftovers! And also democracy!" - Kumail Nanjiani, Writer, Actor, Comedian
"Voting With a Porpoise is such a delightful lesson for children about the power of democracy. Read this book to your children to start preparing and getting the future generation excited about the importance and power of one's voice and vote."
- Carolyn DeWitt, President and Executive Director, Rock the Vote
"Running an elementary charter school on Chicago's south side has taught me that leadership is paramount in affecting lasting change. Voting is the most powerful tool we have to hold our leaders accountable. This book helps our students understand that power, and will get them excited about making their voices heard."
- Katherine Myers-Crum, Founder and Executive Director of Great Lakes Academy Charter School
Voting with a Porpoise is a lively, fun primer on how democracy could work under the supervision of an intelligent species. Here's hoping that ours will one day heed its example." - Chris Lehmann, Editor-in-Chief, The Baffler
Sub-aquatic mammals explain the complexities of the democratic system! If only Brexit could have been so delightful."- Jon Langford, musician, founder of The Mekons and The Waco Brothers
