Beluga Passage

Rating:
Summary: Little Book with Big Story
Review: In this attractively illustrated tale, beluga whales must swim south before the sea ices over. They face dangers from the ice as well as from hungry polar bears. We learn why beluga whales have been called "canary of the sea" and why the protruding forehead is useful. This is a simply told story, but young and old readers will learn a thing or two about these interesting creatures.
