A gorgeously written standalone from the acclaimed author of The
Last Bear, Hannah Gold's second novel is a touching story about
adventure, recovery, and love--perfect for fans of Pax and A Wolf
Called Wander. When Rio is sent to live with a grandmother he
barely knows in California, he feels completely alone. Then he
makes a new friend on the foggy beach--a girl named Marina, who
teaches him about the massive grey whales that migrate nearby. As
Rio grows to love the whales, he discovers that his mother loved
them, too. He's suddenly sure that if he can somehow find a way to
connect her with these gentle giants - and especially with a
particular whale named White Beak - she will get better and come to
join him in California. But White Beak is missing--and Rio must
embark on a desperate journey across the dangerous ocean to find
her. An excellent choice for readers in grades 3 to 7, this fierce
celebration of friendship includes information about the struggles
facing real gray whales from climate change, pollution, and
over-fishing.
