Description

In the deep, shadowed ocean, a legendary whale—Mighty Moby—waits beneath the waves, while above the surface a one-legged captain sets out to finish a hunt that began years ago. This Moby Dick–inspired picture book adventure blends bold, cinematic storytelling with sweeping maritime wonder, following the captain’s relentless pursuit as the sea’s mysteries draw nearer. Along the way, themes of obsession, courage, and the consequences of old conflicts come into sharp focus, inviting readers to question what it means to chase a past that won’t let go. With its distinctive visual flair and playful, surprising turn, the story showcases the imaginative, Caldecott Medal–winning artistry of Ed Young.
