" Chasing at the Surface is a beautifully written story of how one girl's connection to the wonder of nature's wild orcas helps her save both them and herself from life's perils."--Mary Ruckelshaus, Managing Director, Natural Capital Project, Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment, "Chasing at the Surface is a beautifully written story of how one girl's connection to the wonder of nature's wild orcas helps her save both them and herself from life's perils." -- Mary Ruckelshaus , Managing Director, Natural Capital Project, Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment "A wonderful book that weaves an exciting and mysterious story about families and whales, and shows the similarities of the social lives of Southern Resident orcas with our human families. Each chapter left me wanting to read more! As someone who has welcomed these whales for much of my life, I hope many young readers will discover and learn about this very special orca community and become interested in learning more about them and work to preserve their habitat and the salmon prey they need to survive for future generations." -- Susan Berta , Cofounder, Orca Network "A heartfelt story of courage, love and the true meaning of family, Chasing at the Surface moved me to tears and had me cheering for young Marisa in her quest to free a pod of magnificent, endangered orcas trapped in an inlet in the Pacific Northwest." -- Anjali Banerjee , author of Seaglass Summer "As Marisa learns more about whales, she begins to understand the delicate life-and-death balance facing these creatures of the deep. Her interest and passion for the whales grows, but events take a turn for the worse when the whales become trapped because of human activity. The story comes to a climax as Marisa plays a role in helping the whales escape back into the wild." -- National Outdoor Book Awards, "Mentyka artfully weaves whale facts through this moving drama about family relationships and the natural world. Though what's outstanding is Mentyka's skill at immersing readers in Marisa's wonderful sensory scenes with the whales that could only come from her own first-hand experience. The parallels between the plight of the whales and Marisa's confusion and anger at her mom reinforce that the answers to all of life's questions can be found in nature. Chasing at the Surface is an unforgettable adventure that takes readers along on a heart-pounding, up-close-and-personal encounter with a pod of powerful orcas." -- Midwest Book Review, "Chasing at the Surface is a beautifully written story of how one girl's connection to the wonder of nature's wild orcas helps her save both them and herself from life's perils."--Mary Ruckelshaus, Managing Director, Natural Capital Project, Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment, Featured in Children's Book Council's Summer 2022 Showcase: Love Makes the World Go Round "Chasing at the Surface is a beautifully written story of how one girl's connection to the wonder of nature's wild orcas helps her save both them and herself from life's perils." -- Mary Ruckelshaus , Managing Director, Natural Capital Project, Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment "A wonderful book that weaves an exciting and mysterious story about families and whales, and shows the similarities of the social lives of Southern Resident orcas with our human families.

Moments close to the orcas are breathtakingly described, accentuating the thrill as the whales breach, sound, and vocalize.

Brand new item, exactly as described in the listing. Works like a charm, DLC appears to be on the disc. Campaign - the begging of it at least - seems to be playable without any downloads necessary. It could have been packaged better, though. I would have preferred bubble foil padding to the hard paper "bag" the item arrived in. Game disc arrived rattling in the case. I haven't noticed any scratches, Blu-ray coating doing its job, perhaps? Who knows.
