Trapped!: A Whale’s Rescue
Robert Burleigh
Based on a 2005 event off the California coast, this picture-book account follows a humpback whale migrating south when she becomes caught in fishing ropes and nets. As the whale struggles and grows tired, a team of divers begins a rescue effort to free her. The story concludes with information about the event, whales, and whale rescues. Illustrations show the whale and divers from a range of perspectives in the sea.
