Summary, Etc. "Dive into the beautiful world of whales with award-winning underwater photographer Brian Skerry as your guide. From gigantic blue whales to fantastical-looking narwhals to playful dolphins (yes, they're whales, too!), tiny minke whales to barnacle-covered right whales, you'll discover how different whale species live, eat, play, and care for their young, and find out what threats they face. Showcasing all the major species, this book will introduce you to whales that can live for more than 200 years, a whale whose tongue can weigh as much as an elephant, whale pairs that can sing duets, and many more fascinating creatures"-- Provided by publisher.
