Tail flukes wave ... Blowhole spouts ... Meet the whale! Brimming with vivid photos and scientific facts, Whales treats middle-grade researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of these mighty marine mammals. It covers zoology topics such as anatomy, diet, ocean habitat, and life cycle, as well as species conservation efforts and the animals' relationships with humans throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the main text, while a Japanese fable about the whale adds a cross-curricular cultural layer to the title.
