Dolphins, Seals, and Other Sea Mammals (Undersea Encounters) Book

"UNDERSEA ENCOUNTERS, a series of 10 age-appropriate books about the underwater world, teaches through motivation and delight. The young elementary school reader (grades 2-4) will be grabbed 'hook, line, and sinker' by the colorful cover photograph on each book. Inside, the text and an abundance of pictures support readers with features like bolded vocabulary defined in the glossary. There is a section of additional resources, which includes lists of books and websites, and an index with both text and picture pages. DOLPHINS, SEALS, AND OTHER SEA MAMMALS helps the reader to view these animals as more than just another mammal. From their early evolution on land to their return to the sea, dolphins and other pinnipeds have survived in some of the harshest environments, yet still have managed to have fun. Their probing and sorrowful looking eyes, graceful antics, and intelligent brains endear them to children and adults alike. Because these creatures are our closest relatives in the ocean, humans have a special bond with these creatures; some even take vacations in order to swim with them!" --National Science Teachers Association Recommended BookRead More
