About the Book
A gorgeously written standalone from the acclaimed author of The Last Bear, Hannah Goldâs second novel is a touching story about adventure, recovery, and loveâperfect 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 beachâa 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. Heâs suddenly sure that if he can somehow find a way to connect her with these gentle giants â and especially with a particular whale named White Beak â she will get better and come to join him in California. But White Beak is missingâand Rio must embark on a desperate journey across the dangerous ocean to find her.Â
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.
