Winner of the Governor General' s Literary AwardAge range 9 to 12Jack is not like other sea captains. Fishermen say he' s weird, but Jack only cares about one thing: the grey whale with the scarred dorsal fin, the one who swallowed up his son, Julos, years before. Jack promises he will not come home without Julos, even if it means losing himself in the process. Then, on a night like any other, Jack sees something lurking around his boat. He throws himself into the whale' s dark mouth. But is he too late? Will his son recognise him after years of being alone?
"[How Jack Lost Time] offers an affecting, devastating portrayal of the reverberating impacts of loss. "- Booklist"The nautical narrative promises to be quirky, mature, and quite sad. "- Quill & Quire
