In this lyrical picture book with subtle conservation themes, a girl helps rescue a Whale who has washed ashore.
When the tide starts to come in, Emma pushes as the water swirls and rises, and eventually the Whale swims free, back to her mother..
Emma empathizes with the animal\'s suffering, imagining what the Whale is thinking and feeling.
But one day, they find something completely unexpected: a baby whale, washed ashore.
On their walks, they find amazing treasures, like shells and stones and sea glass--and even a loggerhead turtle.
Emma lives in a crooked house in an old whaling town, and often takes her dog, Nemo, to the beach.
Here is a beautifully written, moving story that will appeal to all animal lovers, and to those interested in protecting our oceans and marine life.
