About this ebook
Jake Maddox
Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler – or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps – literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers.

"I’ve been taking folks out on the Gusto for twenty-two years, Captain Steve said, patting the railing of the boat.
In all that time, the people sure have changed, but the animals haven’t. They’re still as hard to find as they were when I started."
He pointed to a vinyl banner that hung on the boat. Whale They or Won’t They Show Up?

Just like the poster says, Gabby,
