Cute book I remember from my childhood, about a whale that swam into San Francisco Bay and then so far up the Sacramento River that he needed human intervention to get back out. Charming.

I read this for Dewey's 24 Hour Reverse Readathon.

The true story of Humphrey the Humpback Whale, who got lost near San Francisco in 1985. Told with beautiful illustrations in picture book format. Moved me to tears at some points. Great true story for sea creature lovers and children.

4 stars.
