Onboard a vessel that would make Jacques Cousteau green with envy, the Cat and
Co. take to the high seas in search of whales, dolphins, and porpoises--those
aquatic mammals known as cetaceans. While learning how cetaceans stay warm
without hair, have teeth or baleen, swim in troops, spyhop, spin, breach, and
see via ecolocation, kids are introduced to almost 20 different
species--including sperm, right, humpback, and blue whales; Gulf, spectacled,
and finless porpoise; and boto, common, hourglass, and bottlenose dolphins. A
shipshape selection for summer reading
"The Cat in the Hat's Learning Library shows young readers that books can be
entertaining and educational at the same time.
