All the Way to the Ocean

Based on the award-winning picture book by Joel Harper, All The Way to the Ocean is an uplifting story about two best friends, Isaac and James and their discovery of the cause and effect relationship between our cities’ storm drains and the world’s oceans, lakes and rivers.

In the story, James throws a wrapper and plastic bottle in the gutter and doesn’t believe that it will go all the way to the ocean. His friend Isaac warns James about the consequences of his littering. There begin the adventures of James and Isaac as they learn about the harmful effects of storm drain pollution, and in turn, spread the word to their friends and the rest of their school. Helping the kids along this journey is a concerned Crane (voiced by musician Xavier Rudd) from the coastline, a surprisingly insightful Surfer Dude, and James’ Mom (narrated by actress Amy Smart). Actress Marcia Cross (Desperate Housewives) acts as the narrator with music by Ben Harper and Jack Johnson.
