PreSchool-K-This series entry discusses the ways whales differfrom fish, resemble humans, and the features that make them uniquecreatures of the sea. Using a picture-book format with ratherclunky paintings, the simple text introduces children to the commonaspects of all warm-blooded mammals. Esbensen focuses on thehumpback whale and compares it to cats, dogs, horses, pigs, andhumans to establish their commonalities. The humpback life cycle isdescribed and illustrated, a cut-away drawing of a museum displayshows a glimpse of blubber and internal organs, and a world mapshows where these mammals live in winter and summer. A few otherspecies are mentioned, and contacts for whale-watching tours arelisted.
