ST Danny & Daisy - A Tale of a Dolphin Duo

Danny & Daisy - A Tale of a Dolphin Duo is a children's nature book written by Suzanne Tate and illustrated by local artist James Melvin. The story follows Danny, a young wild dolphin who gets separated from his pod in a large bay as the water turns cold and fish migrate away. Left alone, Danny struggles to find food and begins to lose weight. Humans notice his distress and rescue him, bringing him to a science center to recover. At the center, Danny meets another rescued dolphin named Daisy, who also received help from humans after being found on a beach. The story concludes with the promise that both dolphins will be released back into the ocean once they are well. Part of Suzanne Tate's nature series, the book combines a factual narrative with colorful illustrations. The narrative seamlessly integrates facts about dolphin behavior, such as "fish whacking" (stunning fish with their tails) and their use of unique signature whistles to communicate.
