No matter what, friends stand together and support each other. At other times, a helpful and non-biased suggestion helps us see the issue in a different light. At times, we give over an argument to achieve peace. As anyone who has a friend knows, it's not always easy. We also slyly meet some of those who share their ocean habitat, and are who are only too willing offer advice or comment. In four stories we get to know both Squid and Octopus.a lot about their abilities at being good friends and a little about themselves. The best thing about each of them is the power of friendship to change our perceptions about ourselves and about the world at large.

Disguised as a boy, she earns a berth on a whaling ship where she encounters the power of nature, death, and madness, and gets her first glimpse of Captain Ahab. The daughter of a tyrannical father, Una leaves the violent Kentucky frontier for the peace of a New England lighthouse island, where she simultaneously falls in love with two young men. Inspired by a brief passage in Melville's Moby-Dick, where Captain Ahab speaks passionately of his young wife on Nantucket, Una Spenser's moving tale "is very much Naslund's own and can be enjoyed independently of its source."
