THE BRITISH COLUMBIA SOCIETY FOR THE PREVENTION OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS
Our mission: To protect and enhance the quality of life for domestic, farm and wild animals in B.C.
When Jane, a senior in high school, rescues a drowning seabird from an oil spill, she doesn't realize this will change her life. After taking the bird to the Urban Wildlife Rescue Centre she unexpectedly gets interviewed by a TV crew and speaks out against the company responsible for the spill. This grabs the attention of both the Sea King Shipping Pacific executives and the star football player at school.
All of the attention is overwhelming but Jane commits herself to working with and for the animals at the Urban Wildlife Rescue Centre. She volunteers her time and makes a plan to get Sea King to do the right thing.
Jane finds love, friends, passion and danger. This is a great novel that will generate discussion on environmental responsibility, advocacy and integrity.
