Survivor Diaries series.
Illustrated by
Jani Orban.
Travis and Marina are on a whale-watching tour off the coast of Washington State when their boat capsizes; separated from their families, the tweens survive turbulent waves, injury, and hypothermia before reaching land. Realistic suspense unfurls in short, profusely illustrated chapters with simple sentences. An appendix includes cold-water survival tips and notes from the Canadian Coast Guard–trained author.
