At the turn of the century, sideshows traveled by train across the country displaying all sorts of oddities. Captain Pinkney stopped in Johnstown, Illinois, with his own "fine educational attraction" packed in ice: a dead humpback whale.
Expand description
Ben and his friend Tommy are on their way to see the whale when Tommy shows Ben his penknife. "To get me a souvenir", he says. But Ben doesn't go along with Tommy's plan to cut off a piece of the whale -- he discovers that he cares about the giant sea mammal, even if it is dead. And he learns how to stand up for what he believes in.
