Interesting facts are scattered throughout this lively exploration of the characteristics and habits of several species of whales. Especially notable is the care Simon has exercised in choosing stunning photographs. Simon's affection for his subject is clear, and his final plea to readers to consider the future of whales is a fitting end to this tribute to the species.

It was night at the New York Aquarium. Kathy was hunting for objects that had fallen into her pool. Maybe she'd spot a tiny rock or a leaf. She knew that if she found something, she would get a fish in the morning-the perfect reward for a beluga whale! Look inside to discover more about Kathy and other whales that use their extraordinary brainpower to get food, stay safe, and teach their young. Book jacket.
