A Sea Otter to the Rescue (Tails from History series)

Thea Feldman

This true animal story centers on Toola, a rescued sea otter living at a California aquarium. As a foster mother, she cared for many rescued pups and showed them how to search for crabs and open clam shells. Her story also connects to a California law protecting endangered sea otters. A closing section offers ideas for helping sea otters, alongside illustrations that recount Toola’s role in caring for young animals.
