Henry is part of a pod of twenty-two orca swimming along the Strait of Georgia. As a young whale, Henry is desperate to prove that he can look after himself, but as his mother says, “Henry thinks after he gets into trouble instead of before.”
Sure enough, in reckless pursuit of a salmon, Henry is caught in the Skookumchuck Rapids, which carry him up inside a labyrinth of inlets until he finds himself utterly lost. As Henry searches for the exit, he comes across goats, tugboats, and seagulls—including Timothy Pinktoes, whose motives for helping Henry are suspicious at best.
With original illustrations and maps by Jacqueline McKay Mathews, A Whale Named Henry is a story that has captivated and delighted children since its original release in 1983.
