Follow Dolphin on a fast-paced adventure that nearly lands him in the jaws of a shark!


Dance, Dolphin, Dance is set in the Western Gulf of California. It follows a Bottlenose Dolphin as he dips, dives and swirls in the towering Kelp in his search for food crossing paths with sea lions, a seal, a giant mantra ray, a grey whale and other sea creatures. But then a Great White Shark appears – and a Killer Whale. Will Dolphin escape?

Dance, Dolphin, Dance is the second book in Patricia McCarthy's Wilderness series, following Run, Elephant, Run (Otter-Barry Books, 2017).
