When Holly wakes up and sees the whale on the beach she can hardly believe her
eyes. Soon she is at the forefront of an island-wide movement to save the
whale. But things are not as simple as the young girl would like and she has to
deal with the ambitions of a wide group of people. Laced throughout with the
important theme of death, this is a powerful and hugely enjoyable novel by
Smarties Gold Medal winning author Sally Grindley.
