As the tide drifts out, magnificent creatures are left on the beach . . . stranded.

As the whales settle helplessly on the sand, humans start to arrive. They carry buckets and spades, wetsuits and white sheets.

Can the stranded upokohue be saved?

A heartfelt story of loss and coming together, written by volunteer marine mammal medic Linda Jane Keegan with evocative illustrations by Isobel Joy Te Aho-White.
