The mysterious lives of whales and dolphins come alive in the full-page photos and lively text of the Whales and Dolphins series. Explore the unique behavioral and physical adaptations that allow these sea mammals to swim fast, leap above the water, blow loud exhale blasts, create curious clicks and clangs or haunting songs, and use echolocation to see in deep, dark waters. Humans feel a connection to these intelligent, playful fellow mammals, and the more we learn about their communication, group lives, and devotion to their calves, the closer that connection becomes. Surprising facts, bold images, and detailed narratives will satisfy curious young readers of Whales and Dolphins.The largest animals on the planet, blue whales have fascinating power. Their blowing can be heard a mile away, and they are even bigger than some of the biggest dinosaurs were. Casual, friendly text, complemented by full-page photos, invites readers into the blue whale's larger-than-life world, where tons of krill are strained through huge baleen plates, and calves drink a tremendous amount of milk each day. The International Whaling Commission now protects these ocean giants.
