Summary:
World-renowned swimmer and author Lynne Cox and Caldecott Medal-winning illustrator Brian Floca team up to bring us this inspiring story of an elephant seal who knew exactly where she belonged. Here is the incredible story of Elizabeth, a real-life elephant seal who made her home in the Avon River in the city of
Christchurch
,
New
Zealand
. When Elizabeth decides to stretch out across a two-lane road, the citizens worry she might get hurt or cause traffic accidents, so a group of volunteers tows her out to sea. But Elizabeth swims all the way back to
Christchurch
. The volunteers catch her again and again-- each time towing her farther, even hundreds of miles away-- but, still, Elizabeth finds her way back home. Includes back matter with information about elephant seals.
