Fourteen-year-old Dylan is sent to live with his estranged grandfather, Angus.
On the Rocks is an inspiring story about the ups and downs of family..
They both desperately hope that soon the orca will be able to join its family, who have been calling out to it just offshore.
Angus is moved by his grandson\'s determination and helps as best he can.
It\'s grueling work, and it will be hours before the tide comes back in and the water is high enough for the orca to swim free.
He collects towels to cover the delicate skin of the orca and begins transporting buckets of water from the ocean below to keep it hydrated.
But Dylan knows he has to try to save the whale.
The sun is coming up, and soon the orca will die of exposure.
There\'s nothing that can be done, says Angus.
Dylan runs to tell his grandfather.
One day Dylan discovers a young orca stranded high up on the rocky beach.
Basically strangers, the two avoid each other as best they can.
