Synopsis
The book recounts the 2018 Tham Luang cave rescue, in which 12 boys on a soccer team and their coach were rescued after they were trapped in the flooded Tham Luang Nang Non cave.[1] It includes scientific information related to the rescue, including details on caverns and diving, and features photographs and maps of the region.[2]
Background and publication
Soontornvat was visiting family in northern Thailand when the Tham Luang cave story was first reported.[2] According to Soontornvat, upon returning to the United States, she noticed that media coverage was portraying the situation through a predominantly Western lens and decided to tell the story incorporating a Thai perspective. She returned to Thailand two months after the final rescue to interview the volunteers who helped with the rescue efforts, with her father acting as her translator.[3]
The book was published by Candlewick Press on October 13, 2020.[1] The audiobook version was narrated by Quincy Surasmith.[4]
