Jacquie Sewell's WHALE FALL CAFE will be published by Tilbury House Publishers in late 2020 or early 2021. WHALE FALL CAFE introduces readers to a unique group of "diners:" the hagfish, rattails, zombie worms, and others that make up the ecosystem that develops on a whale carcass on the bottom of the ocean. The first natural whale fall was serendipitously discovered in 1987. Since then scientists have discovered dozens of new species and important interspecies interactions.
Looking forward to it, Jacquie!
