Dolphins (Creatures of the Sea)

Rating:
Summary: Dolphins
Review: Informative, interesting, and well organized look at Dolphins. Great details and well written, for example, "Dolphins belong to the scientific order Cetacea, which includes all whales, dolphins, and porpoises. Within this order, dolphins are included in the subgroup Odontoceti, which means toothed whales.... Dolphins are not fish. They are marine mammals. This means they have warm blood and breathe air, like land animals, instead of having cold blood and breathing water, like fish." Crisp book design and good photos. Includes a glossary, index, webography, and bibliography. Karen Woodworth-Roman, Children's Science Book Review
