A captivating first-person story of a real-life orca rescue!

When a young orca was spotted alone in Puget Sound, no one knew where she’d come from, but they knew it was dangerous for her to be left there alone. Scientists and researchers from two countries had to work together to determine where the orca came from, and then to decide how to save her. The riveting story is told by Donna Sandstrom, a citizen volunteer with the rescue effort. From identifying the orca as a missing calf named Springer, to transporting her to the north end of Vancouver Island, where she was reunited with her family, this book gives readers behind-the-scenes details on the only successful orca rescue and reunion ever!

Kids will be thrilled to be part of the mission, when a little lost orca is brought home!
