Don't believe in interspecies communication? Grayson, author
[Lynne] Cox's moving memoir about the lost baby whale she
encountered when she was 17, just might change your mind.--PeopleIt
was the dark of early morning; seventeen-year-old Lynne Cox was
swimming her last half mile back to the pier after a long workout
when she became aware that something was swimming with her. The
ocean was charged with energy as if a squall was moving in;
whatever it was felt large enough to be a white shark coursing
beneath her body. In fact, it was a baby gray whale. Lynne quickly
realized that if she swam back to the pier, the young calf would
follow her to shore and die from collapsed lungs. On the other
hand, if Lynne didn't find the mother whale, the baby would suffer
from dehydration and starve to death. Something so enormous -- the
mother whale would be at least fifty feet long -- suddenly seemed
very small in the vast Pacific Ocean. The International Swimming
Hall of Famer and award-winning author shares her story -- part
mystery, part magical tale -- "a celebration of the natural world
in all its glory, and the deep and lasting effect it can have on us
humans if only we pause to notice" (John Grogan, #1 New York Times
bestselling author of Marely and Me).
