A Seal in the Family (Annick $7.95)
Teelo, the sensitive and curious cat from A Cat in a Kayak, is back for another adventure in A Seal in the Family (Annick $7.95), both illustrated by Eugenie Fernandes. The cautionary tale by Maria Coffey is based on a real-life harbor seal discovered on a west coast beach and wrongly presumed to be abandoned.
Coffey, who lives on Protection Island, has simultaneously released a revised paperback version of Fragile Edge, her memoir of loss and reconciliation. It recounts her love affair with elite British mountaineer Joe Tasker who perished while climbing Mt. Everest's 'unclimbable' Northeast Ridge in 1982.
