A gorgeously written story from the acclaimed author of The Last Bear, Hannah Gold’s second novel is a gripping tale about adventure, recovery, and love.

When Rio is sent to live with a grandmother he barely knows, he feels completely alone. Then he makes a new friend on the beach near his house—a girl named Marina, who teaches him about the massive Grey Whales that migrate nearby.

THE LOST WHALE is the touching story of Rio learning to love the whales and realizing his mother loved them, too. He is suddenly sure that if he can somehow find a way to connect her with these gentle giants – and especially with a particular whale named White Beak – she will get better and come to join him at his Grandmother's. But White Beak is missing—and Rio must embark on a desperate journey across the dangerous ocean to find her.

An excellent choice for readers in grades 3 to 7, this fierce celebration of friendship includes information about the struggles facing the Gray Whale today. From climate change, pollution, and over-fishing.
