The story of Riley the Right Whale mimics a true story of Snow Cone and her baby calf. Snow Cone gave birth to a male calf while she was entangled in ropes and nets. FWC removed some of the ropes hindering Snow Cone, but they were not able to free her entirely and she was forced to swim and care for her calf while entangled. Snow Cone and her baby were sighted near Jacksonville in December of 2021 and on January 13, 2022, she was spotted with her calf off the coast of Flagler Beach where they documented the entanglement. She is not doing well as the rope is embedded in her upper jaw and wrapped around her mouth area. No one has seen Snow Cone since October of 2022. The chances of her survival are not good. This is bad news for our beloved North Atlantic Right Whales, who are literally struggling to survive and fighting for their place in our Oceans. Snow Cone is not alone.

James and the Shark is a marine conservation book drawing awareness to the shark finning industry. In this book, our budding marine conservationist James is exploring the world below the surface of the ocean. While swimming through kelp forests and discovering other undersea wonders, James comes across a shark with a hook in its jaw. After James carefully removes the hook, the shark tells him that many sharks are being caught for their fins. About James and the Shark Shark finning is a rapidly growing, mostly unregulated industry that affects shark populations around the world. The number of sharks killed each year for their fins is between 73 and 100 million. No type of shark is spared, including critically endangered shark species. Sharks are targeted in oceans all over the world, from Europe to the United States. James and his love for the ocean and all creatures living within the sea, highlights the catastrophic affect that shark finning has on marine ecosystems. Without sharks, many other marine species die off, and coral reefs are also greatly affected. As James shows, you are never too young to fight for the protection of sharks in our oceans. Through their fearless work to fight for sharks and other marine life, Sea Shepherd Conservation Society work tirelessly to draw awareness to shark finning. Their conservation vessel RV Ocean warrior has been used to witness and film illegal finning, drawing international attention. James and his new friend, the shark, teach us the importance of protecting the ocean in a child-friendly way. Simple black and white illustrations are used to highlight the fact that there are no grey areas when it comes to the protection of sharks in our oceans. 20% of all proceeds from the sale of the James and the Shark marine conservation book will be donated to Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, to help them continue their fight against shark finning.

Russell and the Whale is a marine conservation book, helping to educate and drive awareness to the whaling industry. On a peaceful day on the ocean, out on his boat, Russell hears the cries of a baby whale. The whale desperately asks Russell to help find its mother. Working together, they enlist the help of others to find and reunite the baby and its mother, embarking on a long journey in the process. About Russell and the Whale Although the practice of whaling is illegal in most parts of the world, it continues in certain regions. Illegal whaling continues to put these big, gentle giants of the deep at great risk. Whale meat and blubber have been used for oil and other products for centuries. Today, there is no need for whale products, and many countries have banned the use of whale meat. The fight against whaling has seen organisations such as Sea Shepherd Conservation Society head out into whaling areas, stopping illegal vessels by any means possible. Whales are extremely gentle creatures that survive on plankton. Graceful, beautiful and massive, their calming noises and breaching are a truly magical experience to witness. Russell's work to help reunite a whale calf and its mother aims to inspire both children and adults to keep speaking out against whaling, to ensure the survival of all whale species for many generations to come. Russell and his new friend, the whale, teach us about the impact of the whaling industry in a way that children can understand. Simple black and white illustrations are used to draw attention to the fact that there are no grey areas in the protection of whale species. 20% of all proceeds from the sale of the Russell and the Whale marine conservation book will be donated to Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, to help them continue to fight against whaling.
