John Morano

"Morano does something few writers do. He provides us with a unique perspective - that of the exploited animal. In doing so, he demonstrates just how profound and pervasive humans' effect on the ocean is." — Roger Rufe, President of The Ocean Conservancy

Lupé might be the very last Guadalupe petrel alive, and he knows the best way to save his flock is to find the Islands of Life and a mate. The problem is the well-meaning man-flock that's decided to keep him safe... in a cage. But Lupé has hatched an escape plan all his own! Told in a 'Disneyesque' style, A Wing and a Prayer will have you smiling and laughing as you're introduced to wonderful characters but also important themes, especially the environment. Don't miss more adventures in Makoona (#2), Out There, Somewhere?(#3), and Flocks of One (#4)! Often compared to works such as Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Watership Down, and The Jungle Books, this 25th Anniversary Edition also features an introduction by Mark Tercek, President and CEO of The Nature Conservancy.
