By Mordicai Gerstein
A boy and his father find a whale trapped in their fishing net, and the sea suddenly feels full of danger and choice. The father worries about losing the net their family needs. The boy sees the whale's huge eye and remembers what it felt like to be caught and helpless himself. Even though the rescue is risky, he cannot stop thinking about the living creature tangled below the surface. This powerful picture book moves slowly and tensely, giving young readers time to feel the weight of the decision. With spare storytelling and expressive art, Mordicai Gerstein creates a story about courage, compassion, family, and the responsibility people have toward animals in the natural world.
